Process
The coding portion of your interview will be similar in format to your initial tech screen, but the questions may be a bit more challenging.
Doing well depends on how well you've prepared!
Questions
This part of the interview will assess your ability to solve a non-trivial engineering design problem.
There are two types of design interviews:
- Systems design
- Product design
In either, your interviewer will ask you a very broad question and evaluate your solution.
Not all positions require these skills, and your recruiter will let you know whether you need to prepare for this portion of the interview.
