Coding System Design
The interview process was really long, taking weeks, and it wasn't a great experience overall. The recruiters felt like police officers, very strict. They conducted two coding rounds, which were more like Codility tests than actual LeetCode problems. Then there was a design and architecture round focused on a field completely unrelated to insurance. The interviewer asked if we hadn't used microservices architecture at all, which was a strange question given the role. The recruiter took about 4 weeks to get back, which is a long time for a senior engineer role.

Behavioral Technical
I had an initial chat with the hiring manager, and it seemed to go okay. We talked about my past work, how my skills fit the job, and some things from the job description. The hiring manager said the next step would be a loop interview. A bit later, the recruiter emailed saying I did well and that someone would contact me about what's next. But then, radio silence for weeks. I followed up a few times, but finally got a message saying they weren't moving forward. It was disappointing not to get any explanation or feedback, especially since the hiring manager had laid out the next steps. The lack of communication after that made it a discouraging experience.

Behavioral
I had a screening call with the recruiter, and then a one-hour interview with the hiring manager. After that, I never heard back for weeks. I reached out to the hiring manager on LinkedIn, and they told me they had made an offer to someone who was further along in the process. It's fine, but it's unprofessional for the recruiter to ghost candidates, even though it seems pretty common these days. A simple email letting me know I wasn't moving forward would have been appropriate.

Behavioral Presentation
You'll get a lot of questions, more than some other places. They really want to know why you're interested in working there. Showing up with confidence is super important. Make sure you know about the company, what they offer, and also think about how you'd present their products like you would in a sales role, even if it's not a sales job.
