This was a New Grad position.

1. Phone Interview - 30 minutes. The interviewer discussed my course projects and the kind of work I am looking to do. Some of my friends had coding questions.

2. On-site interviews - 4 interviews, 45 minutes each. Interview questions ranged from deciding where to place servers and services in a data center to the pros and cons of using load balancers. They were all design questions.

The interview flowed like a discussion; it didn't feel like an interview at all.

Most questions weren't that difficult. Once you start talking about them, the interviewer offers their input, and the interview flows like a discussion.

Questions ranged from flags in the TCP handshake to collecting design requirements for a website and deciding on the basis for selecting cloud providers. Load balancers also figure in interviews.
