Their whole interview process is overrated for a company which develops on its own language. But that aside, here is the whole process I went through:

1. Recruiter Screening - 30 mins
2. Hiring Manager Screening - 30 mins
3. Developer Screening - 45 mins (HackerRank test): Parsing a JSON payload and extracting information.
4. Team Virtual Onsite - 3 Hours You meet everyone in the team for 45 mins.
5. Director Interview - 30 mins

After we go through all this, they will ask your salary expectation and reject you as they cannot afford it. I interviewed with the Machine Learning Group and am glad I did not join, as not only were they lowballing, they had some really bad people who did not respect the candidate during the interview.

The interviewer giggled midway, did not introduce himself, and was questioning only to make you feel miserable and fail. They do not encourage candidates to come up with an answer or work on a solution with them.

On the whole, it's a completely overrated interview process for a mediocre company.

Advice to the team: Respect your candidates, as they are taking time to value you as a potential employer.

You have to read through the complete Kubernetes documentation. They won't ask about your experience. Instead, they will ask about hidden commands and error types from the docs.

Garbage collection, server logs. Draw a diagram of the system you designed. Infrastructure as Code. Pod logs. AWS questions on various services.

You won't get any questions from your experience. It will all be based on the skills you mentioned and their official documentation.

These questions are specifically designed so you fail. So, good luck.
