Software Engineer (New Grad) Interview Experience - London, United Kingdom

February 7, 2026
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks.

Supposed to be 5 stages:

  • Technical Screen
  • Knockout Virtual Onsite (Coding, System Design, HR)
  • Engineering Manager Round

I was able to pass the first two rounds, but my system design round was rescheduled after passing the second coding round.

Unfortunately, in my third round, I was asked some vague question that wasn’t system design, but refactoring code. I prepared system design for that interview round but wasn’t asked that. Ultimately, I got rejected.

Questions

First two rounds are LeetCode medium-based questions on graphs and matrix.

Third round was some vague, confusing question containing "AppStoreEntry" class and Published class, which I had to refactor.

Was this helpful?
