Behavioral Technical

The interview process was good overall. The final round consisted of back-to-back interviews totaling 1.5 hours. Before that, there was a 30-minute phone call. The phone call was entirely behavioral and focused on markets, with no technical questions. The final round was also all about behavior, asking questions like 'why major?' and 'why company?', with absolutely no technical questions.

Confirmed questions2 questions
  • Tell me about why you chose your major and why you're interested in our company.

Technical Coding

A 3rd party HR person called me for an interview. The first round was about 1 hour long. After that, they ghosted me even though I think I answered all the questions correctly. I felt the interviewer had less experience than me, and that was the main issue.

Confirmed questions3 questions
  • Can you tell me about Python, iterators, generators, and decorators?
  • What is rate limiting and middleware?
  • Can you solve the Fibonacci series coding problem?
