Asana Software Engineer interviews, decoded.

It was a pretty simple process. Started with a Codesignal, then a coding interview, and finally an onsite interview which included a system design question and a behavioral question. The questions were mostly LeetCode style and pretty easy to find online.

The interview process was generally good, though one interviewer was a bit off. The Systems interview was tough, focusing on a niche modeling problem that's hard to solve without prior experience, which felt surprising for a mid-level role. They didn't test infrastructure knowledge, which is unusual. The coding interviews were good, with a focus on LLD and simple Leetcode problems where understanding patterns is key. The Hiring Manager interview was impressive, with probing questions that gave a positive impression of the company and team, even though I didn't pass.

So first there was a coding round and a system design round. Then a security related round. After that, I had a 2 hour coding round for an OOP coding where I was expected to write classes and methods and explain the logic and time complexity. Lastly, the Hiring Manager round for project deep dives.
