Why are you looking out? Any knowledge of dockers, golang as they work on it 1) intial screening: asked about my work experience and some high level questions on is 2) F2F : 3 rounds 3) Skype:2 rounds Interviewers are friendly and co-operative. HR was following up till everything went well once they got rejection she blindly ignored not even responding to emails. Just at least give some feedback Yaar. I'm not sure what is the criteria for them as I did fairly great in 3 (2 design and one coding, even engineering head was impressed) one coding interview was above average. Other interview was like what is difference between computer and calculator, functional and non functional requirements, one coding and one memory management (handle malloc allocation alligning to 4 byte boundary) Did average in this, not sure if they want all rounds to be great (not even Google thinks this way) Disappointed with HR at the end, do a proper closing if you don't want to move ahead. Design questions are like chat messenger and Twitter Coding questions 1) use queue to implement stack 2) biggest palindrome substring
