Colloquio
First HR basic information call.
For Coding, the same old load balancer is used to distribute the load to customer support agents. So you have to design API's to initialise with agents, set limits for each agent, assign work to the next agent, and get a list of next agents.
They have Minicom round, which is also out there, and repos are there for it.
For System Design, they ask the Low Level Design, mostly DB Schema of the Chat-Based system, groups, private chat, relay messages, etc, focusing on how you will store them in DBs
Then values Assessment, which is a Behavioural Interview.
The interviewers were very inexperienced. They thought they owned the company. Even being disrespectful during times. They definitely didn't know how to conduct the interview.

Colloquio
I was contacted by a recruiter on LinkedIn and agreed to take part in the interview process. Received an email days later about the full interview process. If you are attentive here, you'd see the question for the problem solving interview. Unfortunately for me I wasn't able to finish it under 50 mins as I had to process my thoughts and explain them as I code. I thought I did enough to at least get to the next round but apparently I didn't.

Colloquio
One Leetcode style question, hiring manager chat, small edit on an existing project and a data modelling round. No system design interview for any level. Mostly worried only about data modelling for some weird reason.

Domanda 1
Priority Queue based leetcode, college level chat system like project to make edits, another RDBMS related stuff, then a weird hiring manager chat.
Recruiter screen, then role-specific task (coding or written). Next comes a technical/values interview, followed by a multi-round onsite: pair programming, system design, product chat, and cultural fit. Process is structured and thorough; candidates highlight strong organisation but note occasional tooling issues and slow feedback.

Tell me about a time you improved something without being asked, why did you do it, what was the outcome, and how did others respond?
