The interview process involved one phone screen where the interviewer asked two data structure questions. This was followed by four on-site interviews: three technical and one HR.

They provided a nice hotel near the office, and I walked to the office through lively New York City traffic. Haha.

I arrived at 10:30 am. There were about a dozen other candidates from different universities, presumably all for the Full-Time Engineering role. The process began with a recruiter giving us a tour of their beautiful office.

Next, they gave me a $100 gift card for cabs and other expenses. I was then greeted by two engineers who took me to a private meeting room for the first face-to-face round. They asked about my projects and posed two data structure questions. This round lasted about an hour.

Following that, another set of two engineers conducted the second round. They also started with a project discussion. Then, we discussed a data structure question that they progressively evolved. This round also lasted approximately an hour.

After the technical rounds, there was an HR discussion for about 15-20 minutes. She asked me questions about my motivation for becoming a Software Engineer, a project explained in non-technical terms, and the top three things I look for in a future employer.

This was followed by a round with an Engineering Manager, conducted via video conference. He asked about my resume and then posed system design questions. This round lasted for about an hour and was the final interview.

Once everything was completed, a different HR representative escorted me out of the building and informed me that my initial recruiter would be in touch in a few days.

Data structure questions were similar to LeetCode medium. Design questions required some architectural understanding.
