I think a couple of people here mentioned that already, but it is absolutely true. One of the most bizarre experiences of my career. The technical questions were pretty standard with coding pad and all. But some guy from senior management came in, and without even introducing himself, he started “interrogating” me. I am using “interrogating” here pretty accurately. Not a single question about my current job or my experience. Just going through my resume and asking me why I moved from one company to another ! While talking very slowly and taking long pauses as if he was the head of the freaking KGP !!!Then he said he has concerns about my resume. I honestly could not care less about his opinion of my resume. But if he didn’t like it why do you waste my time ??? Or was he just on a power trip enjoying grilling me !!! I have met a lot of weirdos in the software world but that one was the worst. I feel for the people working under him.

Everyone I talked to in the process seemed very genuine and down to earth, so that part was good. The process was a bit long and specific to Java so I had to relearn that after several years. The coding question during the onsite was an algorithm I learned in undergrad, and had never touched again, so I don’t think it gave great signal. It was either you studied that specific algorithm or you didn’t, and you couldn’t brute-force it. I did not enjoy that. The system design problem was also strange. It started out coding a toy algorithm for a specific request assignment problem, and then about designing a real-world algorithm for the actual problem. I also don’t know what signal they were trying to get out of that. I was expecting a standard architecture design problem, not that curveball. I don’t know how to rate the interview difficulty. It was just strange. I came away expecting a rejection and received one about a week later.

“System design”: write code to efficiently assign requests to “workers”. Then create an algorithm that would do this in real life.

First round is the hiring manager round.
Second round is the technical coding round, asked to build a basic UI component.
Questions were vague but easy. They didn’t seem very interested, which makes me think if they were actually looking to hire anyone!
had a first call with recruiter and he says his feedback is super positive but haven't get any follow up after that.
was asked about my working experience, salary expectation and a couple of basic technical questions.
