After an online assessment, I moved into three interview rounds that were distinctly split into DSA, HLD, and LLD.

The OA itself included an AI project debugging section plus two DSA questions, and I also filled out a working style questionnaire.

The two DSA questions were medium to hard in complexity, and that carried over into the rest of the process: the technical rounds felt like they were testing not only whether I could code, but how I’d reason end-to-end. The overall vibe was fairly demanding and I didn’t end up with an offer.

What stood out most was how much the process combined “build/fix” work with deeper design-focused rounds, so it wasn’t just one coding-only screen.
