I was reached out by the recruiter through a hiring platform called 'Instahyre'.

Interview was conducted over Amazon Chime

  • Round 1: Coding
    The interviewer asked me to explain my previous projects in detail. I was asked a lot of behavioural questions as well.
    Question 1: Similar to Number of Islands problem.
    Question 2: Merge k sorted list.
  • Round 2: Hiring Manager
    The interviewer mainly concentrated on the principle "Customer obsession". I was asked behavioural questions around this principle.
    Then he moved on to coding questions.
    Question 1: Check if a string is a rotation of the other.
    Question 2: Convex hull.
  • Round 3: System Design
    The interviewer concentrated on the leadership principle "Ownership", and I was asked various questions related to it.
    I was asked to design a push notfication system.
  • Round 4:Bar raiser
    This was a mix of behavioural, coding, and system design questions.
    Design question: Design an image processing system that tags images to products.
    Coding question: Given an array of integers of size n, and an integer k, find the largest number that can be formed by performing k adjacent swaps.
    Behavioural question: Challenges I faced and how I solved them.

Edit:
By the time of the interview I solved around 325 LeetCode questions.
Easy: 118, Medium: 170, Hard: 37

I am still waiting for the result.

Thank you all for the wishes. I have finally received the offer :)
