Candidate-reported interview process

Had a good interview, they asked some interesting questions and presented scenarios. The interviewer was really nice, attentive, and helpful. Thanks for the service and cooperation.

You go through several rounds of interviews. The last one is a long one, lasting several hours with a bunch of engineers. They ask Leetcode style problems, system design questions, and other technical questions. The questions are fair, but if you haven't practiced Leetcode, you won't do well.

3 interview rounds total, first one was a talk about the job opening, then a behavioral interview, and finally a technical interview with a binary tree exercise. After those 3 rounds, they extended the final offer.
