Entrevista
After a short call with HR we scheduled a Zoom meeting (75 min) - a coding test. The interviewer was very nice, but when I presented my solution for a rate limiter using Token Bucket algorithm - it seemed like he is not familiar with this approach and was not ready to hear about it.. I tried to explain multiple times what am I doing and after I implemented the solution I was asked to implement the regular solution.. This was a bit annoying because there was not much time left and my original solution was correct, Anyway, I implemented the basic solution, but I had some conversion issue (from seconds to long), and since I didn't have access to the internet and not enough time - I didn't resolve this. So when I ran the solution the answer was incorrect.
After that, I was asked about my AI experience at work (they knew I didn't have any).
After a few days I received a rejection mail.
First of all - I think that it is better to have 2 interviewers, to have a more objective opinion. Second, I was disappointed that the interviewer didn't accept my original solution, despite the fact that it was correct..

Pregunta 1
Implement rate limiter:
public boolean rateLimit(String key, int intervalInSecs, int maxLimit)
Applied through referral after initially applying on the careers page. The process started with a recruiter screen discussing my background, tech stack, and role expectations. This was followed by a 1-hour phone screen with coding questions using the Glider platform. The onsite loop was around 6 hours and included a backend hands-on exercise, system design discussions, and deep dives into my solution and past experience. Recruiter communication was clear and timely throughout the process.
