Hi reddit community, This sub helped me a lot to crack the interview so returning back to the community. Superday, Mumbai (7th Jan, 2026) I received interview call on 6th and got the link in an hour once agreed. I had successfully completed the online screening of coding questions on December. Round 1 - Behavioural Interviewer was an AVP, asked mostly situation based questions. There was no generic questions, so answer mindfully and what you think is the right approach. Remember, there is no right or wrong here, if the interviewer clicks, he or she will think you’re a right fit for the culture. I believe it is mostly decided here about SDE2 or SDE3. Round 2 - Technical It started with SpringBoot questions, again mostly given a problem scenario and we need to give a solution. Next was 1 DSA problem, leetcode medium. It was subtracting and adding K value from an integer array based on a pivot of X. You can decide X, k and array given as inputs. For each iteration, eliminate X and if any value reaches -1. Calculate min iteration to corrupt all elements. I used a left-right pointer approach for this and test cases passed. Finally, it was code review problem, pretty easy to find and you need not understand the code, just point the issues to make it production ready. Round 3 - HLD So far, the toughest of all. Given on a hackerrank IDE, I was asked to design a full scale Buying-Renting Application which had payment service, property service, etc. There were 4 services mentioned, I was asked to design each separately and then connect them. There were lots of follow up questions for every step. Be calm for this round and take hints from interviewer, they’re quite helpful. At the end, they said that decision will be conveyed within 3-4 working days. I received a shortlisted mail on 12th Jan asking CCTC, resume, ECTC etc. Once replied, received HR discussion call on 14th Jan and OL on 19th Jan. Thanks for reading this. So happy to be a part of reddit and all the best for your interview prep. You guys will kill it! Edit: My team matching is done and I received a placement email on 10th Feb with Manager and LOB details. All set to join! 💪
