It was a standard code screening round. Everything was written well and modular, while ensuring sufficient extensibility in time constraints. Solutions were properly discussed before execution, and execution outputs matched the expected outputs and test cases. However after all of this, I was told that the feedback is not positive and they will be proceeding without me. I asked multiple times for feedback however got stonewalled instead. I don't think they are actually recruiting, just keeping their pipeline warm or something else
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Delivery payment system (lld) with a few follow ups
1 phone screen followed by 3 onsite rounds - 1 coding, 1 behavioral, and 1 project deep dive. Questions were pretty straight forward and fair. I did not get the offer though since I was out of practice.
- Coding screening
If successful:
- 2 more coding interviews
- system design interview
- product design interview; power point with previous project presentation
- behavioural interview
- 2-3 references
Typical process, HR screen then coding round (phone screen). Another coding rounds onsite and a system design. Then a project deep dive and team match.
They allow you to use AI in the coding round, which was strange because its a typical leetcode-style question. Claude was able to one-shot it.
