System Design Technical Behavioral

The interview process was pretty good, each part was interesting and laid out well. Everyone was polite and friendly. They gave feedback and communicated professionally and respectfully. The technical interview really felt like they were checking if I could do the job, not asking about obscure details like some other places do.

Behavioral Technical

Interview process started in January with L1 round being virtual. L2 round was a F2F round and was a managerial round, but nothing specifically asked kind of vague. But even after weeks of attending the f2f and despite multiple follow-ups, there has been no response from HR. Calls and messages were not returned.Even a rejection mail would have been appreciated instead of complete silence.

Confirmed questions1 question
  • Could you describe your most recent project, including its purpose and your final implementation?
