Cairo, Cairo GovernoratePosted Aug 2026 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I went through technical rounds that covered systems and databases knowledge along with the usual LeetCode problems you see online.

There were also behavioral rounds that used stressful questions to evaluate social and communication skills.

Overall, it felt pretty boring and outdated to me, and I didn’t end up getting an offer. The part that disappointed me wasn’t just the outcome—it was the sense that the process didn’t bring anything new, even though I put effort into preparing for the standard categories they covered.
