Process

The phone screen was focused mainly on my experience and included some technical questions.

Afterwards, I completed an online assessment that had a couple of coding challenges. The virtual onsite consisted of:

  • Two coding rounds
  • A system design question

I was pleasantly surprised when one of the coding questions about reversing a linked list was nearly identical to what I had practiced on prachub.com just days before. The system design was on designing a scalable URL shortening service, which also went well.

Overall, I felt prepared and ended up accepting the offer.

Questions

Count all substrings with no repeated characters

Reverse a linked list, including k-group reversal

Design a scalable URL shortening service like Bitly
