Recently had a E4 loop. What are my chances? YOE: 1.5
Systems Design: It went okay to maybe good. I would say lean hire but can't say for sure
Behave: Killed it. Strong Hire
Coding 1: Killed it. String Hire
Coding 2: 2/2 optimal but verification for the second question went a bit long and didn't end up with additional time to ask questions. I would say hire decision for this one as well but could have done the testing for the second question better.
Coding 3: This was the weird round. There were two interviewers and the more junior one was taking the interview. I have heard that these rounds may not count but still did my best. I got the first question fully optimal but the interviewer had a lot of doubts regarding my proposed solution so I spent a while proving my solution to them. I led the testing and explanation process myself so hopefully that gives me brownie points there lol. Eventually they were convinced and we moved to the second question. I only had about 10 minutes for the second question. I was able to get the optimal solution but may have missed a few edge cases on this one. The interviewer seemed convinced after my testing but I still think there could have been a case or two that I missed.
As far as other details regarding the interview to help others in the future.
5/6 coding questions were from top 100 tagged.
Behave questions were very standard.
Systems design was not exactly from grokking but very similar to one of those questions.
I was also wondering how long it can usually take for the recruiter to get back to you?
TC: 210K
Update(2/28): have a follow up round scheduled
Edit: got offer!!!

that's such bad luck
I was able to reach the solutions on my own. They gave a few hints as to how to test to get full code coverage but overall I led the testing as well.
Out of out the tagged questions I had 1 hard, 1 easy, 3 med
