The HR called me and explained the role, the interview process, and the types of questions that could be asked in each round. **Interview 1 – Technical Deep Dive** This round mainly focused on my current project work. It also included situational and behavioral questions around how I handled certain scenarios, managed responsibilities, and approached problem-solving in real work situations. **Interview 2 – System Design** In this round, I was asked to design a Play and Pause service for Crunchyroll. The discussion later expanded into its non-functional requirements, scalability considerations, reliability, and other system design aspects. **Interview 3 – Cross-Functional Round** This round was primarily scenario-based. Questions revolved around how I achieved outcomes in challenging situations, handled priorities and availability, and managed disagreements or collaboration challenges in my current role.

Applied and had a 30-minute call with recruiter. It was followed up by a technical phone screen. I thought I did pretty well on the phone screen but I was rejected. Reached out to the recruiter for feedback and got no response. Terrible experience.
