The interview process was conducted remotely and felt casual and laid-back. I had several chances to connect with the team, and we could ask each other questions. I appreciated how practical it was, without having to go through too many steps to advance.

Behavioral Technical

I was asked too many questions in the first round for around an hour. However, I cleared the first round and the second round was took by the Senior Manager which also went pretty well. However, I was rejected when I called the HR I got to know the reason was mismatched skillset which sounds to be illogical, if the skills were not matching the interviewer would have rejected me in the first round itself. Lousy management. i feel the reason is the compensation because I was asked the expectations at the end of the round by the senior manager which is very unlikely.

So, the interview was split into a few parts. First, there was a DSA round where they threw some medium leetcode questions at me. Then, we moved onto a design round, specifically about a filesystem. Finally, there was a techno managerial round with the hiring manager. All the rounds felt like medium difficulty.

Confirmed questions4 questions
  • Did you solve any medium LeetCode questions during the DSA round?
  • Can you discuss your design approach for a filesystem?
  • Tell me about your experience in a techno-managerial capacity.

Behavioral Presentation

You can expect an initial phone or video call first, then you'll interview with Directors or VPs. If they're interested, you'll have to prepare a presentation about advertising based on some scenarios. Several people will evaluate your communication style, experience, how well you can do the job and if you're up for this demanding role. It takes effort and focus, with several interviews.
