Interview questions [1]
Question 1
I was asked about the projects mentioned in my resume and a question from Stack
very chill, two rounds technical interview, normal LC easy/med plus behavioral.. post interview did not hear back for two weeks but then heard the good news. everyone was nice and supportive in the process.
There are 3 back to back interviews, each last for 45 minutes. Each interview asked one behavior question and one technical question. Overall, I think the interview process was pretty standard.
It was a medium leetcode coding intervew and the interviewer was pretty nice. They were easy to talk to. But no offer for the role unfortunately. I recommend trying it out still
