question

[main verge]

hey @zealous pulsar were you solely asked lc-ish questions or was there any resume grilling too?

[zealous pulsar]

mine wasn’t even lc lmao

it was some robot ood question

for like 40-45 mins

then 10-15 min for one resume q and any q i had

[main verge]

oh damn, on coderpad?

[zealous pulsar]

yeah

[main verge]

were they also fine with a language of your choice?

[zealous pulsar]

yeah any language is fine

[main verge]

awesome

[zealous pulsar]

but it’s def team dependent

last team i got lc

[crystal agate]

which team?

[zealous pulsar]

this team ood

[main verge]

was it a hard ood tho?

[zealous pulsar]

vehicle software/integration platforms

[zealous pulsar]

nah pre easy

3 simple classes

[crystal agate]

bruh

crazy luck

[main verge]

any going into oop principles like inheritance, etc? or just simple create classes and use them as needed

I've been prepping mostly lc

but maybe I should revive some oop principles rq

[zealous pulsar]

nah didn’t ask ab principles

[crystal agate]

💀

that’s wild

[zealous pulsar]

i guess as long as uk how to design classes u should be fine

[main verge]

awesome, happy for you 🫡

[crystal agate]

good job, good luck 🙏

[zealous pulsar]

yeah lol

[main verge]

I got one tmr, hopefully goes well

[zealous pulsar]

i was expecting lc

[crystal agate]

interviewer initials?

[zealous pulsar]

BC

[zealous pulsar]

good luck i hope it goes well!!

[crystal agate]

the interviewers are on the team right

[zealous pulsar]

yeah

[crystal agate]

i see i see

[main verge]

which one do you have it for @crystal agate?

[crystal agate]

firebolt

[main verge]

mine is for the traffic engineering team. was a reachout

[crystal agate]

i lowkey might get cooked

i strive to have the level of luck people get in their interviews here man

i always get asked some weird ass trivia instead of any form of coding or leetcode

[main verge]

this team's tech stack is mainly python, rust, and go (for just coding) so hopefully I get smth like lc

do not want to get asked rust and go trivia

[crystal agate]

uh oh

[main verge]

I did put them as two of my weakest languages so hopefully not

[crystal agate]

i’ve heard they ask rust trivia for those roles

[main verge]

for this interview tho, they gave a coderpad

[crystal agate]

yeah

[main verge]

and it's only 45 mins

[crystal agate]

like rust trivia + code in rust

[main verge]

so I assume prolly just lc/ood and some resume

[main verge]

they did say could code in language most comfortable in

so I'm going in pure python because coding in rust during an interview is cursed

[crystal agate]

the recruiter said that right

[main verge]

or even go, since I haven't looked at it since summer

[crystal agate]

she says that for everyone

i’d study up on rust imo

[main verge]

man I put it as my weakest language so I hope not

what happened was I got reached out for tesla cloud

but they didn't want me but then traffic engg got interested

[main verge]

will defo study up on trivia

coding tho? gg

[crystal agate]

yeah at that point like the job is gonna be hell anyways

[main verge]

would be surprised tho since the team matched based off of this

language ranking^

[crystal agate]

how’d it go

[main verge]

pretty intense but overally pre well

hope I made it through

had a lot of theory + many coding q's + behavioral

[crystal agate]

oh damn

was it lc style for the coding portion?

and was the theory specific for ur role

[main verge]

a mix

[main verge]

some but a few q's were algo-based

was not expecting it but surprised that it went as well as it did

will be very sad after allat if it don't go through

they said recruiting ends first week of march so dunno if there would still be 3 interviews, assuming I passed

honestly, today's felt like 3 interviews put together

[crystal agate]

felt similar to me except i just had one lc and then got grilled a lot on resume

i’m assuming the same for my final
