I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Riot Games (San Jose, CA) in Jun 2022
Interview
There is actually a video on YouTube that talks about Riot's interview process, and it's pretty accurate. First there was a coding test, which I got through, and then after there was the first round of technical panels. I unfortunately didn't get past the technical panels, but everyone was friendly and answered any questions I had, and I at least got a rejection letter only a few days after the interview. Solid interview that I actually learned a few things at.

Question 1
There was an easy/medium level leet code question for the coding test, and then the panel asked questions about my code: why I made certain decisions, runtime complexity, what I could do better, etc. Then I was asked some system design questions, how REST APIs work, how the Internet works, and a few other similar questions.
