Candidate-reported interview process
The interview process was really smooth and flexible with scheduling. The interviewer was nice and encouraging. There was just one round with behavioral and technical questions. The coding question was pretty basic and focused on fundamental concepts.
Got referred by a friend so the application process was easy, and interviews were scheduled really fast. They replied quickly to all my messages. The first interview was technical, done through a shared document where I was asked about concepts, my projects, and coding problems.
The interviews were really friendly and supportive, which made me feel comfortable and confident as a fresher. They let me settle in and relax before starting the interview.
