Overall good interview. They make you feel rather useless as they interview you in blocks so they throw you in a Microsoft Teams call with 20+ other applicants. Questions were pretty much on par with Leetcode medium. The interview process included 45-minute sections with different interviewers. Most interviewers were involved and helpful but some definitely stared blankly and did not provide any help or comments.

45 mins technical interview with a member of their San fran team. Very relaxed and informal but questions were focused and lots of follow ups. Easy to schedule as was over video conferencing platform

Straightforward technical loop overall, with strong interviewers at every stage. I genuinely enjoyed the in-depth conversations around technical challenges and algorithmic problem-solving — the entire process felt well-structured and genuinely engaging.
