      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at New York Times (New York, NY) in Nov 2019

      Interview

      Fairly straightforward and standard. I applied online and was contacted by the recruiter. The first call was pretty standard recruiter call, why you are looking, tech stack, etc. The second round is technical video interview with software engineers. This round consists of conceptual datastructure and database questions. On-site after this round with managers, product owners other engineers. One coding round and one design based round and other rounds are very focused on values alignment and cultural fit. Advice to engineers applying, be thorough on your current project and make sure you understand minute details of the project you are working on. Everyone is very friendly and helpful and will help you reach to the solution and do not be afraid to ask questions and be presentable and calm at all times.

      Question 1

      Cannot give the actual questions but String manipulation, arrays; leetcode easy-medium design question can be literally anything but like i said in the description know your current project and its details. Keep asking questions.
