Process
The interview was good.
The interviewing team was quite friendly and asked good questions.
They informed me the next day that they wouldn't be making an offer. This was expected, as I only had 2 years of experience and a Master's degree for a role requiring 5 years of experience, though I performed decently.
I was aware of the work culture from a friend who had interned there previously. They mentioned that the company is very particular about the quality of their code, as they have only one large data product.
The interview mostly involved coding questions that had to be solved on the whiteboard.
Questions
Practice coding questions and make sure you get them right on the very first attempt.
