The interview starts with CV screening (~1 hour). After that, you are assigned to a Karat system for an interview (1 hour). This system will ask system design questions and 30 minutes of algorithm questions (it was subdomain visit). Afterwards, your interview process with real people begins (4 * 1 hour).
The system design portion covered Shazam first, followed by API design for an automated parking lot system. There was also 1 hour of algorithm interview (palindrome, finding the longest palindrome in a given string), and a behavioral interview. Feedback was provided (30 minutes).
Pros: If you want to experience long interview processes before applying to Amazon, Facebook, and so on, this is a free way to test yourself. It serves this purpose well.
Cons: If you genuinely need a job, please don't waste your time. It's useless; they aren't really looking for good candidates but rather someone automated like a robot who can answer all the questions. It's a 6-hour interaction with people, involving a lot of stress and preparation. At the end, you don't receive proper feedback, with generic comments like 'feel free to apply again.' PLEASE don't waste your time.
