Backend Developer Interview Experience - Amsterdam, Netherlands
Process
The interview process included a recruiter screen, followed by a coding challenge, a systems design interview, and a cultural fit interview. The process was very smooth. The coding challenge was your typical LeetCode-style problem. The systems design interview was also very typical: given a vague problem, gather requirements and design a system. I received very detailed feedback after every step, along with materials to prepare for the next one.
