J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 2 jours. J'ai passé un entretien chez ThousandEyes (San Francisco, CA) en mai 2020
Entretien
Quick response. Not sure what kind of people they look for though.
After initial intro we started working on coding questions.
Asked the minStack question, i quickly told them the answer and mentioned that i knew this already so if they want they could give me a different question or i could code the same question.
The interviewer was prepared though and they had another question. Kudos to them for this.
Then they asked me a rate limiter question.
I had to design a rate limiter to limit the number of calls to an api function.
I coded this up and we ran the code and tested a few cases and everything looked good.
Then I asked a few questions about the product. I dug a little deeper and started asking about if they do any learning or smart reporting based on error/attack patterns as it is a network visualization product. After this we wrapped up the call and a day later i got an email that they will not move forward and that i was a good culture fit, but they were looking for stronger technical skills. I might be wrong about this but I felt like I my technical skills were okay but I was not a good culture fit for that team but your guess is as good as mine.
J'ai passé un entretien chez ThousandEyes (Londres, Angleterre)
Entretien
Had 5 rounds
- DSA - Medium
- System design - PasteBin
- Language-specific coding
- DSA - Medium
- Hiring manager interview
Asked questions about threads, concurrency and algorithms.
Long confusing process that conflicted with prep materials I got.
Recruiter tells me I can go for several roles. The interviewers did not know this. Questions I asked were not really answered.
Screen: I thought I failed because the question was super long and interviewer kept interrupting me. Asked weird questions about tech I hardly used. I don't think my solution even worked because he was confusing, no idea how I got the onsite...
Onsite 1: Interviewer was not a good communicator, so I probably wouldn't have accepted an offer. Since he would have been a teammate.
Onsite 2: Technical difficulties so went 30 min over. Guy was nice but typically I have a ton of interviews, luckily was safe that day.
Onsite 3: Asked a lot of weird theory questions. Then if I asked him to remind me how xyz worked in Java, he didn't help.
Only 1 person was from the teams I was interviewing for.
I would not interview with this company again.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Screen: Super long question with over 100 lines of text.
Onsite 1: Design our product.
Onsite 2: use a custom tree to solve
Onsite 3: leetcode company tagged question

Entretien
1. prescribing with HR
2. 1st coding interview. I think it's pre-check.
3. Virtual Onsite interview:
- system design
- coding
- code review
- hiring manager + team fit
I passed all interview steps, and got 'template response' with "we already made an offer to another candidate"...
Highly do not recommend interviewing with this 'company'. It is waste of time.

Question 1
1 - leetcode medium

3 - design our system
4 - review very strange code
5 - weird manager Joe interview.
