Interview
Had a take home test then an interview from a recruiter to prepare for a longer day of interviews.
Longer day of interview went well, most of the conversations were very engaging. One of the non-technical was more interrogational whereas another was more conversational.
Overall very positive experience and loved talking to all the different team members.
There were a total of four interview rounds: a recruiter screening, a hiring manager interview, and a loop consisting of system design and coding rounds. The interviews went very well, and after each round, the interviewers seemed highly impressed and mentioned that I would hear back from the recruiter soon. However, I was ultimately rejected because the decision came down to a very close comparison between me and another candidate. Additionally, the recruiter was not very helpful throughout the process, which made the experience more frustrating.

Interview
Interviewed for SWII. Was straightforward. Had a talk with a recruiter and asked basic behavior questions then told me on the call that I am being pushed to interview day. I was given what the questions might be, Interview day was 2 technical interviews and one cultural. Technical questions was to build a game of battlefield and the other was the set up some HTTP calls.
Gave OA after passing the interview screening. Recruiter will reach out it was only 1 problem in the OA on hackerrank to solve and recruiter will reach out immediately after that’s been solved
