Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

The interview process began with a recruiter phone screen.

This was followed by a technical phone screen, which involved a single question.

Next, I completed an onsite interview consisting of five rounds.

The entire process took approximately two weeks, from my initial conversation with the recruiter to the onsite interview.

I did not receive an offer.

Questions

The onsite interview included:

  • Two standard LeetCode questions
  • A behavioral question
  • A machine learning question
  • A question about my current work
