Did not receive an offer or any feedback, despite spending hours interviewing with them. I hope they fix the feedback loop
Preguntas de entrevista [1]
Pregunta 1
1. Take-home programming assignment:
a. Leet code type question
2. Behavioral:
a. Typical behavioral questions. How do you handle conflict? What project are you most proud of an why? etc
3. Pairing interview:
a. Implement auction system in ruby where a person can only bid once and at the end of the auction it spits out the winner.
4. Architecture: This was the most confusing part is where you sit with a staff engineer and product manager and they ask you how would you go about designing the feature. The direction I went was more focused on the system design, which did not seem to be something they were really looking for. I wish they could have done a better job explaining what they really wanted to see me focus on.
5. System Design:
a. Talk about how you would approach designing and submitting hospital meals to vendors and tracking their fulfillment. I really appreciated the approach the staff engineer took here. He highlighted a handful of bullet points and asked to unpack them in detail. Felt like a conversation where we dove deeper into technical edge cases
