Process
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks.
You first do a coding challenge with an engineer, and if that goes well, you do the full round. The full round is two interviews:
- One is a system design interview
- The second is the learning interview.
Questions
They give you a fake SQL language with documentation and ask you to use it to solve a variety of questions.
