Interview
The interview process was very straight forward.
The initial screening is through a 3rd party company which takes the 1st round of System Design and coding.
Once you clear that, the next round would be the final round which consists of 4 different interviews.
The first round would be straight forward system design for half hour and coding for half hour, I would recommend completing the 1st coding question as soon as possible so there would be sometime left for the 2nd question, which generally is a continuation of the first one.
The main/final interview has 4 rounds, generally coding, system design, OOD and behavioral.
The interviewers are very friendly and help you build towards a good solution too if you are stuck somewhere.
Overall the experience was very positive and I would recommend preparing LeetCode before going forward with the interviews.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Can't give them, signed an NDA. I would recommend preparing LeetCode medium level.
Video call with Interviewer and tested System Design and Coding round. In System Design he asked about a different couple of situations and asked me to fix the problem in their current situation.
