Colloquio
one of the worst interview experiences, I think interviews are largely depend on the people you talk to, if you talk with a good engineer then you will expect some good experience even if you cannot solve the problem that they gave. But if you meet one of their worst employees then you will end up wasting your time. And this is one of the experience that I encountered with Flexport.
The phone technical interview is with some Mental guy. Who gave me a very ambiguous question, as a tech guy, everyone knows if an ambiguous interview question is thrown to you, you should ask as many clarification questions as possible. But this dude was terrible, not only try not to answer my question with "sure, ok, whatever,....", but also he didn't even know what himself is doing, he lost himself the entire interview. very stupid I would say, waste of time, waste your company's reputation.
Domande di colloquio [1]
Domanda 1
a coding design question, I highly believe the interviewer himself does not know what he was asking, because he said so many times throughout the interview that "sorry I was thinking about something else".

Colloquio
Round-0: Recruiter call or Screening call
Recruiter was friendly and clearly explained about the company, role and team. Asked to tell me about myself, then a recent project experience
Round-1: Technical coding 1 (1hr)
Graph based question asked as two parts. Not a direct question leetcode question, but had to take an example myself and write the class and methods.
Round-2: Behavioral Interview with Engineering manager (1hr)
Introduced each other, talked about team and responsibilities of the role. Then she asked about my experience like challenging project, conflict, things that I learned from current experience those I haven't before. Some follow-up question about the project experience and so on.
This interview went well. I stumbled for few questions but overall its a good experience. Engineering Manager was so cool that she was talking and having a conversation rather than firing questions back-to-back.
Round-3: Technical coding 2 (1hr)
More real world based question. Has three parts. First two parts are to design the required classes and methods involving shipping yard, containers, buyers and sellers. The third part is to implement an algorithm to match the bidding between buyer and seller and conduct the transaction.
