I had a technical recruiter call where they just called me out of the blue, I didn't prepare for it at all but it surprisingly went well, it was more of an informative chat. Then there was a technical interview with the principal engineer, where they asked me a lot of questions about high performance computing, given the role I was interviewing for. I should have prepared better, focusing on my actual experience instead of trying to cover too much.

Coding System Design
Overall, I felt the interview process was straightforward and achievable. I successfully addressed both design and coding questions, including crafting a robust notification-API design and demonstrating proficiency with Java 8 Streams to process collections and perform functional transformations effectively.

Technical Coding System Design
I interviewed at JpMorgan Chase Nutmeg. The whole process was pretty slow, taking 2 months to get through 3 rounds. The recruiter was quite rude on the phone but did set up the interviews. The first round was easy, just a basic string parsing question. The second round involved implementing and traversing an undirected graph, including adding nodes and edges without cycles. I managed to code most of it but couldn't finish the cycle detection due to time, though I explained my approach. The final round was a design question: create a service for user CRUD operations (name, email, addresses) and then extend it to call an external background check API. One interviewer was particularly condescending, faking an accent and making remarks about cost and dismissing scalability concerns as 'unnecessary details'. It felt like they were trying to show off rather than genuinely assessing the design. It's important to be empathetic, especially since candidates are under stress, and kindness goes a long way. Overall, a very negative interview experience at Nutmeg Chase.
Confirmed questions4 questions
- Forgot the question but It was a simple one on parsing String and storing it in a map and doing some operation.
- An undirected graph was to be implemented and traversed. The addNode( String val) function would take a string value and add the node with that label. Similarly there was a function to add edges between nodes. However in this function apart from adding the edge we had to make sure that it is not creating any cycle. Then there was traverse() function which would traverse the graph and print the nodes.
- Design a service to take user inputs(FirstName, LastName, email, Addresses) and perform CRUD operation in the backend.
