As some people mentioned, it was online assessment then first F2F interview where we discussed how to implement LRU cache and then the loop interview (4 Tech + HR) The loops interviews are not expected to be in order, it was for me : 1) Data Structures: We talked about the time and space complexity for multiple DS and how is hash accessed by the compiler in Java and I had a leetcode question I guess medium 2) Programming: This was a little bit hard, Asked about concurrency,deadlocks mainly and some DS and another medium question for the closest target 3) System Design The interviewer was nice here and we had a discussion for 1 hour about how to implement a monitoring system including High availability and Distrubted system architecture 4) General Knowledge: Many questions about concurrency, threads, networks like communication protocols, security, database multithreading
