United StatesPosted Oct 2025 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

My interview experience centered on a live coding round with two LeetCode-style problems.

The first was medium difficulty and took about twenty minutes, and then I moved to a harder problem that also ran long enough that it started to feel like the session might overrun.

What surprised me was how many follow-up questions the interviewer asked while I was working through the problems. It wasn’t just “solve it and move on”; I felt like they wanted to understand my reasoning step-by-step and see how I responded when they probed deeper into edge cases or tradeoffs.

Overall it was a difficult round, and while the interviewer was involved and kept the momentum going, I didn’t progress
