DP world Software Engineer interview experience

The core issue wasn’t that I couldn’t solve the problem—it was that the problem statement didn’t come with enough clarification, so I had to keep asking questions while working toward a workable approach.

I pushed through and eventually reached an optimized solution after continuing to reason through the gaps. Even then, I still got rejected.

What stayed with me was the mismatch between how the evaluation felt and how the conversation about the problem went. I left feeling like the bar wasn’t just correctness—it was whether my thought process matched what they expected from the start.
