Interview process

The technical rounds were generally well structured and covered both coding and system design. I performed well in most of the technical discussions, but I found the system design round more challenging. Overall, the process was professional and gave me a clear understanding of the technical expectations.

Interview tips

Prepare for LeetCode-style coding questions and practise explaining your approach, complexity, and edge cases clearly. You should also be ready to discuss every project and technology listed on your CV in detail. Reviewing common system design concepts would also be helpful.

Company culture

My interaction with the team was limited, so it was difficult to form a complete view of the company culture. However, the interviewers appeared professional and technically focused, and the conversations were structured and respectful.
