Position: Software Engineer at Product based Company
Experience: 11 months
Location: Bangalore
Date: June, 2021

Applied through Linkedin Easy Apply on Linkedin. Post a week, a recruiter contacted me via mail and sent hackerrank test link.

Hackerrank Test: The test had 4 leetcode medium/hard level questions. The time alloted was 90 mins.

Within a week the recruiter contacted for onsite rounds and explained the process. I asked for some time and an interview scheduled in 2nd week of June.

Onsite rounds:
Had 5 rounds in total over 2 days.

The rounds are:

2 Coding Rounds ( Coding and Algorithms Module - 1 & 2)
1 System Design and Architecture
Technical Communication round (Discussion on current Project)
Hiring Manager round.

Round 1(Coding and Algo Module 1):

https://leetcode.com/problems/repeated-dna-sequences/
https://leetcode.com/problems/roman-to-integer/
https://leetcode.com/problems/integer-to-roman/

Solved all questions within time. The interviewers were looking for most optimal solution.

Round 2 (Coding and Algo Module 2):
Find K closest values to a number in BST (https://leetcode.com/problems/closest-binary-search-tree-value-ii/)
BFS based question. Similar to Rotten Oranges.

Round 3 ( Host Manager)
Asked interesting behavioural questions and dive deep into current work experience and also a few design questions. This is a tricky round overall.

Round 4 (System Design and Architecture)
Given a problem statement they were currently solving. Required some thinking and they were expecting the solution to scale out at Linkedin scale(700M users).

Round 5(Technical Communication)
Discussed in detail my current project architecture(high level design, schema design, design decisions, and few more). You need to treat them as interns or new onboards and explain your current project.

Result:
After 3 days, the recruiter reached back saying that I have got the offer. I accepted the same.

Also had offer from Goldman Sachs. Here's the experience:
