Process
HR reached out to me first and discussed my interests and the interview process.
They then scheduled a phone interview, which I passed.
After that, there were five rounds of virtual onsite interviews:
- Four coding loops
- One system design
Questions
I can't expose the interview questions, but most of them are medium coding questions, plus one hard question.
