The interview process was difficult but very smooth.
My friend referred me to the company, and the recruiter reached out to me right away to schedule an initial phone screen.
After the initial phone screen, I had a technical phone interview with another software engineer, followed by an on-site interview loop with more engineers, the hiring manager, and the recruiter.
There were a lot of whiteboard coding questions that were pretty tough – clearly, they have a high bar and take their selection process seriously.
I did pretty well on all of the coding questions except one, but it was good enough to receive an offer the next day!
My advice is to be prepared for a tough round of coding questions and to do your homework regarding the company prior to your interviews.
Candidly, I don't think it's appropriate to share interview questions. Doing so might result in someone not qualified for the role getting hired into a position they might fail at.
