How it went

The interview process began with a recruiter screen, followed by a system design assessment, and concluded with a final loop of three interviews. The candidate noted a strong emphasis on system design, particularly concerning distributed financial systems, with a focus on concurrency, fault tolerance, and resilience. One round involved a reverse system design where the candidate presented a past project, discussing architectural decisions. The coding interview presented a practical problem with a unique challenge, distinct from typical LeetCode-style questions.
