Process
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 months.
- Recruiter call: There was an online assessment with a 5-part coding problem that builds upon each part. The recruiter said it was a new part and wouldn't count towards the decision.
- Coding round with an interviewer.
- Virtual onsite: 2 coding rounds, system design, and a behavioral round.
