Process
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks.
Screening round was a system design question. Did not make it through. I do think for such an involved question, the interviewer spent a bit too long explaining the question at the beginning and didn't leave enough time for me to implement the solution. But that was probably not the reason for not passing.
Questions
Standard system design question. Practice with Hello Interview or similar site.
