Lead Software Engineer Interview Experience - Bengaluru, India
Process
I had two rounds done: one on system design and another on low-level design. I was rejected after these two rounds.
As per me, both rounds went well. I was able to solve both problems, but then HR said the feedback wasn't positive.
Questions
Round 1: Design BookMyShow.
I solved this completely, handling all use cases.
Round 2: LLD document design system where a document can have read and write access for specific users, and content should either be read from cache or disk based on certain conditions.
My solution was completely working with good design, solving all use cases in 1.5 hours.
