Process

Overall, I thought it was an excellent interview process. During the university's career fair, I was invited for an interview on campus. The first round was purely behavioral for me, but for some of the other candidates, there were technical questions as well.

After a couple of days, I was invited for the company's Super Day event. We were flown out to the company about two months after the first round of interviews and placed at an awesome hotel.

After that, we went to the company and went through a series of interview stages that included:

  • More behavioral assessments
  • An individual coding challenge
  • A group coding challenge

Questions

Things about queues, stacks, and other basic data structures.

Some of the questions could have been easily solved or answered if you had more knowledge of algorithms.

Tip: Just be yourself and be confident in your answers. Be prepared to explain your reasoning for questions.
