Interview
I arrived for my scheduled interview and was taken through a standard technical screening that included coding problems on a whiteboard and questions about my academic projects. The interview panel consisted of two senior engineers and a team lead who evaluated my problem-solving approach and technical knowledge. After a 90-minute session covering algorithms, system design basics, and behavioral questions, I was told they would follow up within a week regarding next steps.
