The hiring journey consisted of three concise stages: an initial recruiter phone screen, a brief manager conversation focused mostly on soft skills and project fit, and a final panel that touched lightly on generic coding concepts rather than deep technical problem-solving. Overall the process felt straightforward, friendly, and surprisingly low-pressure for an engineering role, with far more emphasis on cultural alignment and availability than on algorithmic rigor or system-design depth.

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Leetcode question - no coding - just mention the approach. System design question.
Disorganized, no HR reached out to discuss about the administrative details and salary and benefits, the hiring manager reached out directly, scheduled a meeting and asked about HR questions(visa, RTO etc.)
The hiring manager was late for over 5 mins minutes, no apologies, no greetings. Negative experience
The interview covered Python libraries, networking, and my software engineering experience. While questions were basic, they can be tricky for seniors. Review your definitions alongside your past projects to succeed.
