Me postulé a través de una agencia de empleos. El proceso tomó 1 semana. Acudí a una entrevista en Kickdrum (Bengaluru)
Entrevista
The process was very professional and conducted very well. It starts with an online test consisting of problem solving and SQL questions. Following that there were three rounds with the India team ranging from technical basics (JAVA, Data structures & Algos, SQL) , architecture and solutioning of applications to people management and leadership skills. Once you clear these rounds you have multiple interviews with the Principals of the company (based out of US). I had four calls with four different principals which focused on technical details, problem solving, AWS knowledge, leadership & people skills. I thoroughly enjoyed the process as it was very professionally done and I was able to learn a lot about where I stand as well.

They give a popular application like AirBnB and ask you to solution it from website to the backend. How do you scale it and ensure that its fault tolerant as well as HA. Lot of emphasis on AWS stack and knowledge of AWS components to achieve HA and fault tolerance
Problem solving skills where you are given a puzzle to solve. The emphasis is on how you approach the problem and not on the solution. They want to see how the candidate approaches any problem.
