Process

The process took approximately 4-6 weeks from start to finish.

It began with an initial technical screen with Karat.io, which outsourced the technical phone screen to a third party. Standard coding questions were asked on Coderpad.

This was followed by a second screen with the hiring manager over the phone, focusing on general discussion of experience.

The onsite interview was a full day, including:

  • One system design round
  • Three coding rounds (one of which focused on Object-Oriented principles)
  • One round with the manager
  • Lunch with the team

I received feedback from the recruiter two days later, informing me that they would proceed to the second round of onsite interviews.

The second onsite consisted of an interview with the CEO and VP, and another round with the hiring manager.

I received an offer soon after.

The overall process was very good. The recruiter was exceptionally accommodating and helpful given my circumstances. The team was enjoyable to be with, and everyone exhibited high energy.

I declined a few other offers and ultimately accepted the one from Roblox.
