The first round involved questions about algorithms and basic computer science.

The final round consisted of six sub-rounds:

• Two whiteboard sessions
• One system design
• One resume deep dive
• One coding review
• One close.

I noticed that a few of the interviewers were not professional enough. They struggled to lead the interviews and engage in meaningful discussions in English, often due to heavy accents and inappropriate word choices. All of these interviewers were from China. This is not to say all interviewers from China were problematic; some could engage in English without any issues.

To improve the candidate experience, you should ensure that individuals who cannot effectively communicate in English are not assigned as interviewers. This will prevent negative interview experiences.

I have signed an NDA.
