Round 1: Coding Assignment (CodeSignal)
A take-home or timed industrial coding challenge from code signal
Round 2: Hiring Manager Interview
A conversation with the hiring manager to discuss your background, interests, and alignment with the role.
Onsite Rounds:
Round 3: Deep Dive – Work & System Design Discussion
A technical deep dive into your past projects and contributions.
Be mindful of not just the architecture, but also why some decisions were made.
Round 4: Leadership & Behavioral Round
A structured behavioral interview to assess leadership, teamwork, and problem-solving in complex situations.
Focuses on past experiences, conflict resolution, and decision-making skills.
Round 5: API Design & Best Practices (Coding Round)
A practical coding session, not purely algorithmic but focused on designing and building a small API/system from scratch.
Asked about scalability, maintainability, and software design principles.
Round 6: System Design Enhancements
Given an existing system design, you’ll be asked to analyze it and propose improvements.
Expect discussions around scalability, reliability, trade-offs, and edge cases. I guess I failed at this step, since it was an unknown with this style of interview.
Great people involved and were very accommodating.
