United StatesPosted Feb 2025 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I went through a relatively coding-forward interview flow over a few rounds, with medium LeetCode and no heavy system-design burden.

Initial screen / hiring test — A non-technical assessment, then a separate phone screening with an easy LeetCode-style question.
Coding rounds (1–3 total) — Timed coding interviews focused on LeetCode problems (arrays/DSA-style), with quick follow-ups when I got stuck.
Behavioral — Typical background/fit questions; the overall emphasis stayed mostly on coding rather than leadership or deep system design.
Additional loop / office-stage — One experience included an office visit and time to meet the team; another was a very linear, straight-to-the-point competitive
