TC 130k Yoe 5 Behavioral - great in every round Round 1 with hiring manager. String parsing question. Was weird. Asked about clarifications. Got a solution for it. Not sure what interviewer was looking for in this round. Answered follow ups Round 2 - medium leetcode stack question. Talked about optimal solution. Started coding and interviewer gave me hint. Solved optimal solution but took too long so no follow ups. Round 3. Object oriented design. Talked through design before coding. Took too long. Was able to explain optimizations. Didn't get follow ups since I took long Round 4. System design with bar raiser. Behavioral went amazing. Straightforward system design which I was able to solve. Answered follow ups. Going for l5 Edit; my prediction - no hire Results: 6 months cool off. Denied
You have no idea if the behavioral questions went well. There's not much use in trying to ascertain how your lip went. You'll get the results when you get them.
You're right. But generally behavioral has been my strength based on other onsite feedback while leetcode/ood has been my weakness
Good luck, rooting for you π. Let us know :)
Denied with 6 months cool off
Sorry to hear that OP, hope you get a equal or better opportunity elsewhere!
Can you share the OOD question? I'm really curious on what that'll be like
It's just a common board game
Impossible to know. One of the rounds is with the hiring manager right? I would imagine how you came off to them will matter a lot
Yea. Round 1 was with hiring manager
Update us when you get the news. I'm curious also
Denied with 6 months cool off
Sucks. I failed my OA last week also. I'm not too worried I just have more time to properly prep.
good luck man!

FWIW thought I was no hire when I interviewed and was even a little embarrassed, and it came back as a strong hire so you never know
Ooo nice. What do you think was deciding factor. I felt embarrassed after interview too. Especially since it wasn't difficult
I think the interviewers liking you is a big factor. If they feel like you are really giving 100% to answer their questions, I think that goes a long way. Acing system design should also help a lot.

Which team?

Impossible to tell so donβt kill yourself with the results of this poll. Hope you get it OP!!!
Thank you! So nervous. I don't think I'll get l5 though
You donβt know that yet so stay distracted till then. L5 or L4 youβre gonna upgrade your Tc and get a good name on your resume. Future is bright π
