Process

Firstly, I ask someone to give me a referral. Then, a recruiter reached out to me, and the interview process begins. The first round is a phone screen interview.

There are then four rounds of on-site interviews. The on-site interviews are really hard. Some algorithm questions are very tricky. Make sure you have done lots of practice on LeetCode, or you will fail.
