Process
An agency contacted me for an interview here.
I received no information about what I was applying for. They randomly scheduled an interview and started asking some BS questions. This was for the restaurants team. I feel really bad for the people who work under this team and for that lead. He had a DESI mentality; do not join here. And who interviews on Skype?
Questions
Spark, Kafka, REST API, and some problems finding an error in the code.
