Principal Software Engineer Interview Experience

Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

The interview process was fairly standard.

The first conversation was with an internal recruiter.

I completed Stage 1, a coding interview, and moved forward to Stage 2.

Stage 2 consisted of:

  • One coding interview
  • One system design interview

I did not make it to the final stage. Their interview process was exactly as documented in their own materials.

Questions

Design a system for adding hashtag-style annotations to multiple existing (legacy) document systems. For example, annotate a document in system A and a video in system B with the same tag. Be able to show information about both items when someone searches for that tag.
