Entretien
2 Stages Overall:
1 - 3 Online Assessments:
1.1 - Find the bugs in 8 code snippets in 15 minutes (Easy)
1.2 - Solve 2 LeetCode style questions in 70 minutes, followed by 10 minute behavioral
MCQ quiz (LeetCode Easy)
1.3 - 1-2h behavioral assessment in the form of a virtual environment assessing your
responses to different situations. Solve 24 maths/logic problems in 30 minutes.
2 - On-Site: 2 1on1 interviews, 2 behavioral questions based on the leadership principles followed by a whiteboard coding problem.
Questions d'entretien [2]
Question 1
Given an array of strings arr and a word w, write a function to determine if w is valid (valid if w is in arr). What if the array was sorted? What other data structure could you use instead of an array to improve complexity?
It started with an OA, and then after a few weeks, I got invited to four rounds of interviews: technical and behavioral at 3 of the 4, and behavioral only at one.

Online Assessment is the first step in the process. I didn’t have an HR phone screening and went straight to the OA after applying. It was sent to me about a week after I submitted my application.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
The first question is LeetCode style algorithms question, and the second question gives a full stack repo (choice of Java, NodeJS, or Django) and asks to solve a backend issue which is causing a bug in the frontend. Unit tests must pass to pass the second question. You can run both backend/frontend indivdually or together

Entretien
Recruiter reached out and set up an onsite loop after the initial steps. Four back to back rounds in one day. Two coding heavy rounds run by senior engineers, one round with the hiring manager, and one behavioral round with a bar raiser. Mix of leadership principles and data structures throughout. Heard back within a week.

Question 1
Standard BFS grid problem. Given a grid, find the time for all cells to reach a target state where the spread happens one layer at a time.
How did you answer: Clarified the constraints, walked through the approach, then coded a clean BFS from all starting points at once. Tracked the number of layers until everything was covered.
