Software Engineer
OA, behavioral, technical. The process itself was pretty straightforward and nothing out of the blue. It was a standard Leetcode-style OA with behavioral questions from HR. The technical interview was also standard with engineers.
Software Engineer
Fast interview. Coding was non-LeetCode, focused on system design and parsing logs. Lots of chats about the resume and past experiences; this seemed like the most important signal. Overall, a very fast turnaround and a fair interview.
