The interview process was structured and thorough, consisting of multiple stages. It started with an initial phone screening with a recruiter, where they asked about my background, experience, and interest in the role. The recruiter also gave me an overview of the company, its culture, and what they were looking for in a candidate. After passing the phone screening, I was invited to a technical assessment. This was an online coding test that lasted about an hour and covered data structures, algorithms, and backend system design. The problems were challenging but fair, and they allowed me to showcase my problem-solving skills.
