I had the first meeting which was with their recruiter. In this meeting they share detailed information about the company and the position and allow for me to ask questions I had about the position. Afterwards they asked about my experience.

1. Call with Recruiter 2. Take home HackerRank with 3 questions a. Easy algo b. SQL query c. Easy Frontend Api implementation 3. Meet with engineering manager to discuss resume and some backend questions 4. 3 Final interviews. Each 1 hour (30 min behavioral, 30 min hackerrank). a. Database design (rental car application) b. Database/Api design (TinyURL) c. Frontend app pseudocode (Google Maps type implementation)

Overall, it was a very positive interview process with good communication and very engaged interviewers. First step was a 90 minute take-home code challenge with three parts: a relatively easy algorithm, a database query, and an API request with JSON parsing. Next step was 3, 1-hour interview sessions: - Engineering manager interview, part behavioral and part live code challenge (easy/medium leetcode) - Lead Engineer interview: half was a code challenge (build a binary search tree), which is very hard if, like me, you don't have a CS degree and haven't done enough grinding on leetcode yet. But the interviewer was super helpful and made it more of a pairing session instead of watching me flounder. The other half was system design (a craigslist of sorts). - Interview with Director of Engineering that was part behavioral and part database and architectural, with questions around AWS S3.
