      I was pretty chill, was asked about how I would design an observability stack for servers in data center. There were questions, but it is mainly about how I am thinking and my approach.

      Very smooth and simple process! my favorite process of any company I have interviewed for. The interviewers seemed genuinely engaged and interested in my experience compared to other companies I have interviewed for. No unnecessary irrelevant tech questions

      Intern - Software Engineer Interview

      Jun 11, 2020
      Anonymous employee
      New York, NY
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at DigitalOcean (New York, NY) in Apr 2019

      Interview

      2 rounds of interviews, both relatively short (only talked to one person each time), both over video chat First round: technical, medium difficulty Cracking the Coding Interview-style questions Second round: technical and behavioral, with more abstract technical questions - talking through how you would handle particular scenario, rather than live coding I had a deadline for another job, which they were very accommodating of, with only a few days of turnaround between each step of submitting my resume, the interviews, and getting a decision. The people who interviewed me were my future mentor and manager, which was nice. My only complaint is that it's hard to feel totally confident you'll like the culture of a company without an on-site interview experience.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      If you had a 100 servers hosting, say, a sports new website, and 3 of them suddenly went down - what would you do/how you would investigate?
