Colloquio
The interview process was handled poorly I had two technical interviews which were leetcode tagged questions and each of these interviews went well. I moved on to the system design round which was much more of a database knowledge test where I got asked SQL queries and how to make databases go faster as well as how does a index work in a database. It felt like my fate had been decided from the start with this interview as the lead interviewer just didn't seem to like me. That being said I think if I had answered everything perfectly I still would've gotten through. The porcess as a whole was a mess with interviews getting cancelled and being told I wasn't going to get to interview for the final round however when I followed up I got one. Organisation and a final interviewere who had it out for me are why I've said I had a negative experience although my other 5 interviewers were all lovely.

The entire process was a bit chaotic, I spent a bit of time going back a fourth with my recruiter to schedule the interview by the time i was able to i believe they had already moved forward with a different candidate. My interviewer ended the interview early and had no interest in me at all.
