Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I applied online. The process took 3 weeks.

  • First, there is a behavioral interview with a hiring manager.
  • Next, two technical interviews with pseudo coding.
  • Finally, one system design.

The interview is conversational. Emphasis is placed on your reasoning and not necessarily compilable code.

Questions

Technical:

  • A cache question.
  • Traverse a file in batches.

System Design: A notification system.
