June 1, 2025
Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

The whole process took around 2.5 months.

  • Tech screening (describe one of your favorite projects in the past + easy coding problem)
  • Main loop: coding, system design, values (behavioral), and case study (production troubleshooting)

System design wasn't the easiest one. I was asked about a feature related to the Spotify app. I got rejected for not being collaborative enough.

Main loop coding was a LeetCode Hard problem, similar to LC295.
