Good chance. How was interview? Leetcode? System design question?

Amazon manduckpig OP Dec 18, 2021

No leetcode. They have their own set of questions. 2 sysd, 1 coding, 1 concurrent coding, 1 hm.

Coding was not LC? I had LC for my phone screen. Have onsite coming up soon.

Didn’t hear back yet

Amazon manduckpig OP Dec 23, 2021

Not sure what is going on. I got my feedback from recruiter 1 week ago but no decision yet? Can folks from Confluent weigh in here?

Amazon manduckpig OP Dec 23, 2021

Am I being ghosted?

Confluent blazi Dec 24, 2021

Doesn't usually happen. Could be due to the holiday season. Hang in there!

Dude, just move on. Focus on your next interview. You will get news soon

Amazon manduckpig OP Dec 24, 2021

I’m done with my job search and have a couple offers in hand. Confluent is the last company I’m waiting to hear back.

@manduckpig can you share what type of questions were asked in the sys design and the concurrent coding rounds, Have not heard about concurrent coding round in other companies

Amazon manduckpig OP Dec 27, 2021

Sysd rounds are similar to FAANG interviews. To prepare for concurrent rounds, I practiced concurrency tagged questions in leetcode to brush my basic skills.

I was told one of the sys design question and the recruiter asked me to prepare a doc , send it previous day and explain it during the interview. Something like design MySQL, kafka, etc.. Anybody had similar experience?
