The interview process was intense but moved really fast. Everything was scheduled tightly, so there wasn’t much downtime between stages.
It started with a quick recruiter screen, then jumped straight into technical rounds. The DSA interviews were very LeetCode-style: you had to clarify requirements fast, pick the right approach under pressure, and code cleanly while explaining tradeoffs. They pushed hard on complexity, edge cases, and optimizations, so it felt like you were constantly being tested for both speed and correctness.
The system design round was equally demanding. You had to scope the problem quickly, define APIs/data models, and reason through scaling, reliability, caching, and bottlenecks. They asked “what breaks first?” questions and expected crisp justifications, not hand-wavy answers. Overall, it was a high-pressure sprint: lots of depth, minimal fluff, and rapid turnaround
