Technical Coding System Design

The interviewers were pretty relaxed and talkative. They provided helpful feedback throughout, guiding me toward the correct answers. The process involved DSA-based puzzles, sometimes requiring the creation of unique data structures. After that, they reviewed my resume. Each round also included OOPs and System Design questions, such as designing a book publishing system.

Technical Behavioral

I applied via my university's career site and had an initial one-on-one interview on campus. This first part lasted about 40 minutes, with 10 minutes dedicated to introducing the company and the remaining 30 minutes focused on technical questions. My resume wasn't discussed at all. Following that, I had a phone interview with a group where they asked about my resume's relevant experiences, followed by more technical questions. About a week later, I went for an on-site interview, meeting several people from their team. These interviews were similar in nature to the earlier ones, and the overall atmosphere was very friendly and relaxed.
