      Site Reliability Engineer Interview

      28 Jun 2020
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Bengaluru
      No offer
      Positive experience

      Application

      I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Atlassian (Bengaluru) in Apr 2020

      Interview

      I was contacted by a recruiter for an SRE position based out of Bengaluru. Coding Round: I was given a problem and was allowed to use any language and IDE of my choice and share my screen, Problem was LC medium, interviewer was cordial and kept giving his inputs on the solution. Since atlassian does not have a QA team, developers are supposed to write their own test suites, becuase of that he was very keen on how i test the solution. Make use who put enough thought while coming up with test case. System Design: This is the bar raiser round. I was interviewed by a senior guy, some Direcor or Architect. Problem was unique, atalssain specific not the standard distributed systems. The interviewer was interactive, make sure you discuss your solution before designing. He kept pushing me to come with a better solution. Once you made past this round, hr would contact you and breif you about the next rounds one by one. They are really helpful and help you preapre. Techincal Round: Interviewer was based out os sydnney office, part of the SRE team. Discussion on past projects, follow up questions. Some system questions aferwards. Values Round: Read about five Atlassian values. You are given a set of questions and asked to share your real life anectodes. Managerial Round: More on the behavorial aspects then technical. Most challenging problem you faced etc. After going through all the rounds, and with positive feedback. After a few days, I got a rejection. It's ridiculous, even the hr said they were almost sure of my candidature. I was told in the debrief call all the feedback was good to great except the system designs guy and he didn't agree. Not sure they do this to all but its absolutely ridiculous.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Atlassian (McLean, VA)

      Interview

      2 interviews in 1 day at the start, one technical and one design. Both were done with proctors who asked questions surrounding the existing team I would be joining. I don't think the interview process was difficult and appreciated the discussion I had during the design interview.

      Question 1

      How would you design a system to handle rate limiting for an API?

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Atlassian

      Interview

      Two screening calls, one interview prep call, and six rounds of interviews. Coding rounds were very much of the "gotcha" variety. Beyond the basic requirements outlined at the start each had an additional, opinionated requirement, and there's no way to discover what that is until it's too late to refactor. If your solution (one of many possible, each with tradeoffs) contains the magic thing, Atlassian lets you through. Otherwise you're out. Atlassian runs a large number of candidates through the interview process, then runs something closer to a lottery than an evaluation in order to whittle down the numbers. Not good for the candidates OR their employees having to constantly run interviews!

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Coding rounds were for a middleware URL router and a multi-user rate limiter.
