Every interview was super nice, and the overall experience was awesome. I was asked a few programming questions and previous projects. The programming questions were not hard, but you have to consider if your code really works.

The interview process with Akamai was disappointing. The technical panel didn’t maintain a professional tone, reacted poorly to common technical hiccups, and seemed more interested in testing memorization than evaluating engineering ability. Their behavior created an uncomfortable atmosphere and didn’t reflect the standards of a global company. This experience strongly influenced my decision to discontinue the process.
