storm ember

#

All three rounds in the same day

#

Do yall know what to expect

#

I am pretty sure about the pan lc questions , prepd my resume and also basic sys design and behavioral questions

#

How deep they go into sys design?

quiet jetty
#

All you guys are bachelors or masters?

#

@storm ember , how was the interview. What did they ask?

storm ember
#

Fucked me up big time

#

Ive given around 14 interviews

#

Covered all faang except netflix

#

But this one was the hardest

#

Even Google l4 was easy compared to this

#

@storm ember , So coding was hard or did they ask some technical cryptography/security questions? How was the behavioral ?

storm ember
#

Behavioral was fucked up

#

They kept making every component harder and harder

#

It was based on LLM event management

#

The interviewer told me to assume the worst case in every component and asked to fix it

#

Even drilled me down on security concepts

#

@storm ember i too am told that there are some 30 candidates before you to schedule their interview. Any help about what each round looked like could really help. 🙏🏻

storm ember
#

Nothing was standard in my case

#

I prepped leetcode

#

But nothing came up for me

#

Prepped the regular sys design but was asked a completely new question regarding designing llm systems

#

Behavioral
Was standard

visual iron
#

Thats strange pattern for interview! So all rounds where sys design and no lc?

wispy falcon
#

mine was pretty chill

#

one interview sys design but basic like what apis needed etc

#

on interview coding but pretty basic not super algo heavy

#

uh 9/19 and 9/22

#

have u had interview yet?

#

do u need sponsorship?

#

are u masters or bachelors?

#

ah . pretty sure they decided not to sponsor

#

so all applicants needing sponorship were rejected unfortunately

#

pretty unprofessional tbh

#

yeahh if only they would just be honest about it. cus the job application changed from accepting bachelors who dont need sponsorship or masters who need sponsorship to just bachelors who dont need sponsorship

#

thank u bro

#

just look at their open swe postings

#

its only SWE - bachelors now

#

the original posting was SWE bachelors/masters, and in description it states my sponsorship details

#

new posting says only no sponsorship

#

also other people on reddit had this happen too who needed sponsorship theres a few comments about same thing

#

so i mean its not certain but its very plausible
