Senior Software Engineer Interview Experience - Bengaluru, Karnataka

June 1, 2025
Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I had two system design rounds and one LLD round. I didn't hear back from HR after LLD; it didn't go as well as I would have wanted. The LLD interviewer was cold and distant and barely responding to whatever I was saying, so it was a bit frustrating.

Questions

  1. Design a web crawler.
  2. Design a user service CRUD that can support 500 RPS at 1-2ms response times.
  3. LLD for a calendar application:
  • Ability to create, update, and delete an Event. An event would typically consist of {start, end, location, Owner, participant-list, title}. Events can either be like meetings (with a dedicated location and appropriate guest-list) or as well be like holidays, meetings, reminders, etc. An event, once created, can be either accepted or rejected by the constituent users; if neither, it should be in a neutral state.
  • Get Calendar for a user UI weekly, monthly, and daily.
  • Get Event details.
  • For a given set of users [U1, U2,....Un], identify a common free slot of time.
