How it went

The interview process for this senior full-stack role at Netflix focused heavily on domain-specific skills and cultural fit rather than traditional data structures and algorithms. Technical interviews involved practical React tasks related to internal tools, and the system design discussion was open-ended and conversational. Behavioral questions were extensive, probing for consistent self-awareness and alignment with team needs, suggesting a preference for candidates with directly relevant prior experience.
