I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Roblox in Feb 2025
Interview
The process was a recruiter reaching out to you. Took time to talk to him and thought it went well, then a generic email. I replied and ask what was specific reasons for the rejection and was ghosted. I think you shouldn't be too upfront about why you're leaving your jobs. /shrugs
Other Senior Software Engineer interview reviews for Roblox
Reach out by recruiter, set up phone screen interview. 60 min coding interview. A leetcode style question with 3 follow up , overall experience is good got reject 2 weeks afterward.
The phone screen was surprisingly technical and lasted about 45 minutes, diving straight into system design. I was asked to design a leaderboard service, which caught me off guard at first. But as I started to outline my approach, I realized it was similar to a challenge I’d practiced on prachub.com just days before. The subsequent technical rounds were intense, focusing on DSA problems and scalability issues. In the end, I got an offer that I happily accepted, despite the difficulties I faced throughout the process.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Design a leaderboard service that supports tens of millions of concurrent players. Cover top-K queries, neighbor-rank queries, partial sharding, and consistency tradeoffs.
Reached out by HR and chatted with a hiring manager. Mostly Behavioral questions such as why you want to work at roblox. The conversation was great and smooth. But they rejected me after a few days.
