I applied for the position on LinkedIn and heard back within two weeks.

The interview process began with a phone screening, where I was asked a medium-level LeetCode problem and some questions about my resume.

The final stage consisted of four virtual rounds:

• Medium-level LeetCode problem solving.
• A string manipulation question requiring production-ready code.
• A system design question focused on a comment filtering system.
• A behavioral interview.

Everything went well until the end, when they informed me that the position had been changed to a hybrid role. They required me to relocate to Texas or Illinois at my own expense.

I had interviewed under the assumption that the position was remote, so this change was a disappointing experience.
