Senior Back End Engineer Interview Experience - Bucharest, Romania
Process
I started the interview process at Bolt two weeks ago.
The first phase was a coding challenge, and the second and third phases involved algorithms problems.
For the second interview, I was given a data structures problem. My solution ran and displayed the correct result, achieving linear time complexity. The interviewer seemed happy with the solution I provided. Nevertheless, the next day, I received negative feedback. When I asked for more details, I received no further follow-up.
