Overall a nice process. The recuiter was responsive and helpful, the interviewers were nice and the questions seemed related to the job and the hiring process seems to be well eastablished.

First Interview: 1.5 Hours at Their Office First 30 Minutes: 1: They provide an overview of the company. 2: You are asked to introduce yourself. 3: Describe a project from your current company. Remaining hour 4: system design question on how to design an autocomplete feature. 5: partly implement the algorithm in python. ======== My Background: I have solved over 600 LeetCode questions, have a strong foundation in competitive programming, and regularly assist experienced engineers with system design preparation. 7+ years of professional experience. I didn't passed the first round despite the fact that all questions was answered correctly + provided solution was well explained HR answer: Lack of chemistry. Not technical reject. My Perspective on the Issue: In my view, they are not seeking top engineers who are passionate about solving problems. Instead, they prioritize finding someone who is inherently a team player. This makes the interview process at this company quite unexpected. It suggests that you can be an average engineer with good communication skills, and that will suffice. Technical skills seem to be of lesser importance.
