Software Engineer Interview Experience

Process

I had a call with the recruiter to determine if I was a good fit, followed by:

  • A tech round with LeetCode-style questions.
  • A virtual onsite with (a) system design, (b) a behavioral round, and (c) backend-specific questions.

I signed an NDA, so I cannot reveal the exact questions I was asked.

Overall, I had a positive experience. My interviewers were friendly and largely asked me questions that could, in some way, be relevant to the company's work. My recruiter was fantastic, sending me prep materials but also earnestly rooting for me throughout.

They also gave me 3 months free of Grammarly Premium, which I started using in emails, docs, LinkedIn messages, and more – very thoughtful!

Questions

LeetCode medium question about strings. There were two questions, and the second was trickier, but it involved a good grasp of basic data structures.
