Process

Super easy. The process went straight from application to the final round, which seems normal for SWE interns, specifically in full-stack roles.

The final round consisted of two interviews back to back. Mine was with people from the same team.

One interviewer was a senior manager, while the other was a newer hire (also a former intern).

Both asked standard behavioral questions and a LeetCode Easy each, both involving array traversal.

Questions

Tell me about yourself besides your resume.

Tell me about a time you failed a customer.

Tell me about a time you found an error in your work and how did you communicate that with your team.
