Extremely slow and unprofessional. It always felt like they were not interested from the start.
Interview process:
The process was just too slow. It took 1.5 months to go through all 3 rounds. They would take 1-2 weeks to get back after each round and 1 week to just schedule the next.
Extremely unprofessional recruiter. He set up a meeting for a prep call 3 days before the final round and never showed up. I emailed him to reschedule, and he would not reply. Then he asked me to do the prep call on the day of the final interviews, which was too late. This meant I was going in blind to the final interviews and had only a little bit of idea because of other Glassdoor reviews.
Interviewers were great! They were all attentive, involved, and helpful. They asked good questions about my skills and background and were enjoyable to chat with.
Map and list related questions.
LeetCode Easy and Medium.
All the questions are practical and related to the actual challenges faced at work.
Nothing crazy in coding, and all the interviewers were attentive, helpful, and fun to talk with.
