I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Goldman Sachs (London, England) in Jan 2025
Interview
First round of standard LeetCode questions and next super day with multiple interviews in one day on different SWE topics (System Architecture/Design, Data Structures, Problem solving) and a general fit interview to finish
First round was hackerrank assessment having 2 coding questions. Then after clearing that, the first round of interview had Leetcode Hard question, similar to get the maximum score. I was not able to do it. Interviewer was very nice though
