I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at MongoDB (Bengaluru) in Apr 2025
Interview
There will be 5 rounds of Interviews
1. Recruiter Screening (The expectation is you have to code an AI/ML application end to end including the front end, they will ask you to confirm this.)
2. Hiring Manager
3. Technical Interview I (Case Study will be provided, you have to develop and then present it to the interviewer) - Takes about 5 hrs to prepare - You will have to develop and architecture from the ground up
4. Technical Interview II (Coding exercise - Will have to code a reasonably complex application. You will have to present this to the interviewer, answer questions, and make live changes to the code base, which will take 6-10 hrs, depending on the complexity.
5 Director Interview - As usual. General "Director Questions", use chatgpt, I think the questions came from there.
