Behavioral Technical Coding System Design
I applied through the campus career website and got a call from HR a few days later. There was a 10-minute general HR interview, and then the technical interview was given 3 days later. The technical interview had three questions: basic data structure and Java questions (like comparing HashMap, List, and Set, and the difference between passing by value and reference), an algorithm question (checking if a string can be formed from characters in another list), and a class design question (spellchecker) along with a discussion on how to divide the work among developers.

Technical Coding Behavioral
I had a phone interview first with someone from the dev team where they asked me some technical questions. Then about a week later, I went in for an in-person interview that was around 3 hours long. There were 5 people interviewing me one after another. They had me do an SQL test with about 5 questions, which wasn't too difficult. They also asked about my prior testing experience. The place seemed pretty cool and the vibe felt laid back.

I spoke with a few people and everything seemed okay. I then looked up reviews online and saw a lot of negative feedback about the head of HR. I reached out to some former recruiters and after hearing about how she treats the team, I decided to withdraw my application. I don't want to share the specifics of what I was told, but I'd advise anyone looking into recruiting roles to do their own research, as it might help you avoid a bad choice.

I got a call from HR to set up a phone interview. They were super nice and asked a bunch of general stuff about my past work and skills. They also shared a good amount of useful info about the company and its vibe, which was cool. Turns out, they don't have a position budgeted for this role yet, which stinks, but we're going to stay in touch because they think they'll be hiring soon.
