The interview process

Described in candidates’ own words.

A recruiter reached out to me. After a few weeks, I had a one-hour call with a manager where we talked about my current projects. Then, about two weeks later, I was invited for a one-hour onsite technical interview.Candidate-reported process
The interview process was in-person. The first round was a technical interview where I was asked about Core Java, System Design, and Coding Questions (Leetcode) covering Data Structures & Algorithms, Networking Concepts, and high-level design.Candidate-reported process
I had an interview that felt really easy, lasted about an hour. It covered basic Java stuff and team fit questions, nothing too tough. It seemed like a pretty straightforward first round.Candidate-reported process
