It was a 3-round process. The first round was a screening, covering product development background and some basic questions about logging and the technologies used. Round 2 focused on system design, involving discussions on microservices, API gateways, JWT authentication, gRPC vs. REST, and SQL vs. NoSQL databases, culminating in a rate limiter design problem. The final round was a techno-managerial interview that included team handling and a system design task for WhatsApp.

Behavioral Technical Coding System Design
I had one of the most disappointing interview experiences. After spending nearly five hours in interviews, I never heard back. My initial call with the manager was promising, and several of the interviews felt positive, but one interviewer was unprofessional, coming across as rude and sarcastic. Additionally, I struggled to understand some of their communication. My advice: think twice before investing your time with this company.
