Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Can you explain how you would optimize the performance of a large-scale web application?
HR screening and then some coding rounds with your lc questions, the questions weren't the hardest ones but I wasn't really prepared as for myself. Interviewers are overall fairly nice but it can vary, I notably had a bit more trouble with an interviewer whose english wasn't very good. But process itself was ok.
The process included 1 HR screening, 2 live coding interviews testing algorithms and problem-solving. They are classic leetcode questions. Then 1 system design interview and 1 final review with behavioral questions
