BengaluruPosted May 2026 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

My first interaction was a one-hour call that felt fairly normal—talking through my background, expectations, and the day-to-day.

After that, the technical part came in two segments, with a total of three technical questions that mixed problem-solving and design.

I was given two data-structure-style questions, and then I had a separate round where I handled a design LLD question. The journey had an organized feel to it, and the difficulty was steady rather than punishing. Overall it didn’t feel like a pure “gotcha” LeetCode experience; it was more about showing how I’d approach the problem end to end, and it left me feeling that my performance mattered more than theatrics. I didn’t end up getting an offer.
