I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Shopee (Singapore) in Sep 2021
Interview
Received a call by HR to understand and go thru my resume and explain the job detail.
Next round is a live coding interview with senior team member. Difficult leetcode algorithm was asked.
The leetcode question is like IQ test. You will know how to do it once you know the trick.
Don't see how the ability to solve leetcode question in a short time reflect my experience and problem solving skill. I guess this norm in software interview, only get hired when you able to answer leetcode question.

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
There were some questions raised regarding databases.
Online code screening, focus on algorithm and data structure rather than what you can do in the past. You are free to choose your programming language but the code must run.
