Welcome to SinkedIn

Phone screen was a medium graph problem. Onsite: two coding rounds (a hard-ish DP and a tree problem where they cared way more about how I communicated than the optimal), one system design (design a nearby-friends feature), and a behavioral. Hiring committee took ~2 weeks after.… See more

Phone screen was one DSA + LP stories. Onsite was four rounds: coding, LOD/system design, a behavioral-only round, and the Bar Raiser. Coding went fine but I clearly under-prepared the LPs. Have 2-3 STAR stories per principle, they dig into "tell me about a time" hard. Bar… See more

Five stages spread across three weeks. Online assessment (2 DSA), then a live DSA round, then machine coding (design an order-notification service, they grade OO design and edge cases hard), then system design, then a managerial + HR chat. The machine coding round is the real… See more

The round is a 90-minute live machine-coding session on Meet. Prompt was a logging system: multiple log levels, pluggable sinks (console/file), configurable routing by level. I spent 25 minutes on a "clean" abstraction and ran out of time before it actually ran. Feedback:… See more

Less "invert this tree", more "here is a realistic codebase, make this work and handle the edge cases". A bug-hunt style round, an API design discussion, and a behavioral. If you are a builder more than a competitive-programmer, this loop actually plays to you. Best interview… See more

Coding round was fair, system design was collaborative (they nudge you, it is not adversarial). But there is a dedicated values round and it is scored like the rest. Prepare examples of feedback you gave, conflict you handled, a time you changed your mind. I almost skipped… See more

Each coding round is two problems in 45 minutes, so you have ~20 minutes per problem including talking. Optimal solution AND clean code AND narration, at speed. One behavioral, one design. I solved both problems in one round but too slowly and it showed in the debrief. Speed is… See more

Process moved fast at first, machine coding (design a cab-booking-ish dispatcher), a good design discussion, felt strong. Then the recruiter stopped replying. No reject, no offer, just gone. Posting the rounds so at least the prep helps someone even if the closure never came for… See more

Four rounds, each interviewer actually read my resume, and the "as-appropriate" round (the AA) was a genuine conversation about tradeoffs instead of a gotcha. DSA was medium, one design round scaled to my level. Still waiting to hear back but wanted to say a calm, well-run loop… See more
