Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

The location and office are very great. The interviewers were very friendly.

I applied online and was scheduled for:

  • One phone interview (non-tech)
  • One tech phone interview

These were within two weeks, followed by the onsite interview. The onsite contained six one-on-one interviews, all involving whiteboarding and coding.

Questions

Which project did you like most?

Consider a B2C website like Amazon, which will receive thousands of requests from buyers per minute. How will you design the "shop cart" component for it? Where should the customer's shop cart data be stored?
