1. Pattern-based logical multiple-choice test

This is a simple multiple-choice test based on patterns. There are 18 questions and a 15-minute time limit. It's unclear why this test is administered.

1. Coding test

Three simple coding problems with no time limit.

1. Another coding test with an engineer

This test is of average difficulty. The interviewer also asks about your current work experience.

1. System design problem

This was a bit confusing. First, the interviewer (who, for the test, pretends to be a product owner) asks to build a throwaway prototype of the given problem statement and later asks to build a production-level service for the same problem. This causes some confusion, as there might be a difference in opinion between the interviewer and you on what components are considered in the prototyping phase and what are for the production service. For example, the interviewer might ask you to skip testing or authentication components in the prototyping phase, but you might think they are must-haves even in the prototyping phase. This grey area between prototype and production service design was confusing for me.

1. Two bar raisers

The hiring manager was responsive and helpful too.
