Process
Applied online and received a reply within two weeks. They sent me an HR test, which was 15 minutes long. I attempted it after one month. Then, I received a reply stating they wanted to talk. This was followed by a background check interview, after which there was a technical interview.
Questions
The HR test was simple but can be tough if you are not used to thinking fast.
The technical interview was mildly difficult. They asked me about how problems I face are worked through and solved. Then they asked the following:
Suppose you have a long list of URLs that you have to crawl to find phone numbers. What algorithm will you use? How would you scale or distribute it? How would you store the results, etc.?
