The interview process
Described in candidates’ own words.
“HR screening call, then a HackerRank assessment with one hard and one easy question. This was followed by a Superday which included another HackerRank assessment (two medium questions), a discussion on SDLC, and questions about experience and low-level system design. The final round was a chat with the hiring manager.”Candidate-reported process
“Recruiter messaged me on LinkedIn after I applied there to get some details. The process included an OA assessment and then a Coderpad round where I was asked a hard tree question, but I couldn't finish it in time.”Candidate-reported process
“So first there was one online assessment which was a hackerrank coding assessment, and then there were four technical rounds. The questions were mostly about my resume, and probability and math topics. You should expect questions about Markov chains, regression, linear algebra and machine learning.”Candidate-reported processMore reports lockedRead 300+ more interview experiences
