Process

I applied online. The process took two months.

  • Coding rounds: consisted of three LeetCode medium to hard problems.
  • Scheduled interview: was supposed to have three rounds, which were coding, domain knowledge, and behavioral.

I got ghosted on the date of the interview.

Questions

They asked me a LeetCode hard problem.
