Me postulé a través de una recomendación de un empleado. El proceso tomó 2 meses. Acudí a una entrevista en LinkedIn (Mountain View, CA)
Entrevista
Applied through referral. Contacted by recruiter(s) who set up a phone screen. Phone screen interviewer called a day before scheduled date, due to some screw-up on their part. Luckily I was available at the time and took the phone screen. Phone screen question was multi-part, medium difficulty (Leetcode level).
After passing the phone screen, I was invited to an onsite at their Mountain View/Sunnyvale campus. Onsite consists of five 1-hour sessions, and an hour for lunch. The sessions include two coding sessions, one system design session, one technical communications session where you are to explain your past project(s), and a session with a host manager with behavioral type questions. All my interviewers have been with the company less than 3 years, which is probably not surprising given the industry.
I got the rejection notice a week after the onsite, reason being performance on the coding and system design sessions. The coding and system design questions were not particularly difficult. Probably because of that, they expect you to come up with the optimal solution without many hints.

One coding question was about to tree traversal, another to stacks. System design question is one that is very commonly used and you can find sample solutions all over the internet.

Interviewed for an SDE role. The process was well-organized and the recruiters were responsive throughout. That said, the technical rounds were significantly more challenging than expected — definitely come prepared to go deep. Overall a valuable experience regardless of the outcome.
That was a real stroke of luck — when I got to the coding round and encountered a question on finding the maximum subarray sum, I had literally seen this exact problem on prachub.com a few days earlier. The interview kicked off with a recruiter screen, followed by a technical phone interview. It was intense, especially with the focus on algorithms and data structures. I also faced some behavioral questions that challenged my experience. After a final onsite round, I received an offer and happily accepted. Overall, it was tough but rewarding.

Overall, a good interview process and the team were very friendly during the interview process and it was very good and pleasant. Nothing in regard to negative feedback or anything as such like that.
