There were 5 rounds of interview. 1st round- coding round. Given a elevator system to design and code. working code was expected and design should be scalable to support multiple lift. 2nd round- problem solving round. Given a binary tree, find number of nodes at k distance from a target node in tree. 3rd round- database design round. I was asked to design database for JIRA. On top of the design few SQL queries were asked. 4th round- interviewed on core concepts related to core java, multithreading. questions based on memory leakage, race condition, how to represent a graph in rdbms, how to get thread safety without using synchronization and object lock, dependency injection. 5th round- (taken by founder) how would you choose between SQL and no SQL DB. Which datastore would you prefer if asked to design Google calander. How do you keep yourself updated with evolving technology. I completed 5 rounds, not sure why didn't get offer.

I usually don't write on glassdoor, but I was impressed by the professionalism and fast process, so writing to share my experience. Pros: 1. Smooth and well organised process. No major hassles. 2. Very friendly and warm people overall. 3. Great vibe from the office. Very nicely lit and open setup. 4. The interviewers seems smart and knowledgeable. Questions were challenging and the interviewers in most cases guided on how to approach them. 5. Company seems to be working on challenging projects. Had seen them featured on Google I/O and was quite impressed. Cons: 1. You will have to wait long for next interview so be prepared for that. If you go till final rounds then your whole day will be gone. 2. The interviewer in my last round was bit rigid. He had his own solution in mind and not very open to discuss solution I proposed. In all, it was a good experience except the last round. Did not make it but it was very good learning. The process is better than many other startups I have interviewed at. I really appreciate that they gave very quick feedback about the result even if it was not a decision in my favour. It's unlike in many other startups where I didn't hear even after days of following up.
