SDE-2 Interview Experience - Bengaluru, India

January 12, 2026
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

There were four online rounds:

  • Machine coding round: 90 minutes plus a 30-minute explanation the next day. It went extremely well.
  • DSA round: 45 minutes, two medium questions. It went okayish.
  • System Design round: 1 hour. It went very well.
  • Hiring Manager round: 45 minutes. It went well.

They kept on hanging for two weeks, saying another recruiter would discuss with you, that they were on leave, or that the hiring manager was busy. Then they told us that they would be taking one more round because they suspected AI usage in the first round. Why did they not discover that in the 30-minute explanation round?

After two to three weeks of irrelevant responses, the recruiter stated that they did not have openings and were not able to accommodate even those candidates to whom they had given the offer. Then the next week, they again posted openings on LinkedIn.
