Worst Experience!!! First round: coding. there were 3 questions 1. one was easy-med i guess greedy problem 2, second was medi on disjoint set kind of problem 3. one has to write SQL query was also easy using some group by Second round: tech round it was one of the easiest interview- i have faced intially there was some discussion on my previous projects and later looked like panel has predefined list of questions questions like - diff between array and linkedlist - diff between stack and queues and so on i gave all the answer the panel also looked convinced the very same day HR called that feedback is negative and when i asked about the area she mentioned "design/architecture" but interestingly there were no questions asked on architecture or design level

I had 4 interviews. The interview took place online and took about 1 month. During the first conversation with the senior recruiter, I explained all my expectations and the desired salary, I was completely honest with the numbers and said that I did not want to waste my time and theirs if they could not offer me a certain minimum range. The recruiter said the company could live up to my expectations. Communication with the engineering team and hiring manager went smoothly. I really liked the team, JustAnswer seems to have a great engineering team. After the recruiter called me. I missed the call and she left a voice message. She said that they wanted to make an offer, but they could not give the desired salary. I called her back, but she didn't answer. I sent her a couple of emails during 4 days, but she did not answer. I was upset, I didn't understand what was going on. I decided to email the hiring manager to see if they were considering me as a candidate. I received a reply from a recruiter right after my email to the hiring manager. What was the problem to answer me before? She offered a salary of $40,000 less than we agreed, and said that initially this was the maximum for this position. Of course, I rejected. I felt cheated and disappointed. It looks like the recruiter doesn't care about her candidates at all and it was a SENIOR recruiter. Why did they do this 1 month interviewing process if they couldn't initially offer me the salary I wanted? Why they spent my time? Why did not answer my calls and emails?
