Process
I applied through a recruiter. The process took four weeks.
The interview process had five rounds:
- An HR screening.
- A Computer Science fundamentals interview.
- A conversation with the Hiring Manager.
- A technical interview.
- A deep dive into one of my past projects.
They also had a System Design interview, but it was skipped because I was applying for a junior position. During the whole process, the HR team was very supportive, quick to respond, and kind. I especially liked getting feedback right after each interview stage. It kept me informed and made waiting between rounds much less stressful.
