Process

Attended an on-campus code competition, then submitted my resume to the campus recruiter.

Scheduled an on-campus interview, which lasted 30 minutes.

After one week, I was invited for an on-site interview with four engineers.

Received feedback within several days.

In each interview, I was asked several behavioral questions and some coding questions, except for the last interview, where I was given a design question.

Questions

All but the last one were super straightforward. The last one was about designing and finding problems in a mass system.
