Interview
Applied online in Feb 2019 . A 3 round interview. The first round was a phone interview where I was asked about basic java questions. I did well ,they offered a round 2 in 3 days time. second round was much harder, a coding interview at the Seattle office. first question is they give you a requirement and write the code on whiteboard . it was easy question that involved a hash map but I got nervous and took too much time to get to the answer. the third round is OOP design a pet care store using UML. I did not do well here . practice all OOP design questions you can get. Interviewing people are friendly, phone interviewer was super nice.
