Process
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks.
The first contact was a call with the recruiter. Then there was an initial screening. After this, there was an on-site interview with 4 rounds:
- General system discussion
- System design
- A LeetCode-style coding round
- A debugging round
At the end, there were 2 more rounds to see culture fit and HR logistics.
