Technical Coding
It was pretty chill. They weren’t ruthless, but they asked good questions. Make sure to be prepared. Study engineering concepts. Also, there is a coding portion. I liked it because their coding question represented what you will likely do on the job instead of reversing a linked list which you will likely never do.

System Design Behavioral
The interview session was quite short, only about 30 minutes, with the first 5-10 minutes dedicated to introductions. The overall flow of the interview process felt a bit unstructured. Most of the questions were open-ended, focusing on broad design concepts like 'how would you design X' without specifying particular scenarios or conditions. For instance, a question was asked about designing a system for luggage transfer where senders post requirements and carriers bid on them. The issue with this approach is that there can be countless valid answers, and it's crucial to be precise about the specific scenario or problem you want to discuss, especially given the limited interview time. This wasn't the best interview method.
Confirmed questions1 question
- Could you describe how you would design a system that allows senders to post their luggage transfer needs and enables carriers to submit bids or quotes for these tasks?

Behavioral Technical
I had a thirty-minute chat with Jason K. He gave me the lowdown on their product, what they're aiming for, and the kind of person they're after. The team's got this big plan to totally redo the product, which got me thinking about their work vibe and how they team up when making big shifts. I asked about how the team works together and chats, and it sounds like they've got stuff in place, but I got the feeling their scene might not be what I'm after right now. It was cool to hear Jason's take, but I'm not gonna go further with this since I'm still figuring things out.

- What's your approach when you have to rewrite code that a colleague wrote?
