Process

I applied through an employee referral. The process took four weeks.- Phone interview- Full loop interview (four interviews)It was good, but some interviews seemed not prepared well and asked too general questions. The coding question was okay. Two interviews went well, but two of them were not enough to pass.

Questions

  • LRU Cache
  • DFS tree question
  • System design (chat like WhatsApp)
