Process

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1+ week.

Recruiter was good and winded up complete interview process in a week Had 5 rounds

  1. Online Assessment Good questions, where you are tested based on your implementation and design skills (reverse proxy question)

  2. Assignment Round Interviewer was cool and was friendly

  • (tailf command question)
  1. Technical Round interview was great, interviewer was cool and friendly, and was open with different approaches to the solution

  2. Last technical round Negative experience here, i came up with a working solution. but it felt like interviewer had his own solution in mind and his solution had same flaws he pointed out in my solution, he kept pointing out hypothetical cases and wasn't ready to accept my solution. basically his solution was best for my worst case input and my solution was best for his worst case input, even wrote a working code in limited time, but interviewer had his own solution in my mind so can't do anything about that Got rejected here

  3. HR round
