After the recruiter screen, the rest of my loop took almost a month, which felt longer than I expected. After the initial phone conversation, I had two technical interviews centered on data structures and algorithms. One covered merging overlapping intervals, and the other asked for the minimum number of meeting rooms.
The final interview was system design. I had to design a scalable metrics monitoring system. Working through a similar architecture during prep helped. The technical bar was high but fair, and I received and accepted an offer. I was happiest that the design question did not feel random. It matched the kind of thinking I had practiced, even though the whole process took longer than I wanted.
Location: United States. Overall feedback: neutral. Offer status: got offer.
