Technical Coding System Design
Got a call from a project manager, we talked about the job and the team I'd be joining at Citrix. They set up the interview for a time that worked for me. The PM said there would be two main rounds, both technical. The first one covered best coding practices, DSA, OOPs, MultiThreading, Core C++, and the like. The second round, which I didn't get to, was supposed to be system design, but instead of common questions, they'd ask about my past projects.

The interview process was pretty lengthy but doable. Everyone was super nice and supportive. You do a panel interview and then a few role plays. You will find out if you got the job within a few days. It was covid when I applied so the processes looked a bit different.

The interview process was quite long, with several rounds that really tested my skills, experience, and how I solve problems. When I first applied, I was excited but didn't expect it to be so tough. It started with a recruiter call to chat about my background and what I was looking for. After that, I had a technical assessment that needed a lot of problem-solving and thinking on my feet. The questions were hard and made me think outside the box. Then came a behavioural interview, focusing on my past experiences, how I handle challenges, and if I'm a team player. They wanted to see how I act under pressure and work with others. The panel discussion was probably the hardest part, with multiple interviewers from different teams asking questions from their perspectives. I had to answer carefully while staying confident. After that, there was another technical round, digging deeper into industry stuff. It felt a bit similar to the first one, but I get they wanted to be sure. The final round was with a senior executive, focusing more on my vision and long-term goals with the company, not just technical skills.
