I got a call from a recruiter (Backtracked to find that they found my contact through Naukri) to know my availability for the interviews at NIKE office in Bengaluru. It was a short notice, as there was just about 2 days were left for the interviews to revise.

Second Round (Technical Round with Sr.SDE)

- Unique Middleware question with networking packets routing ( solved it using Priority Queue ), this was a scenario based question and not a typical leetcode style
- HLD and LLD of my current Product as I used Circuit Breaker Pattern , so grilled me on that
