University placements. I was shortlisted but they ended up canceling the interviews of multiple students once their hiring quota was filled. Interview ordering wasn't merit-based. The initial coding test was offline and subsequently, there was an offline case study round before interviews started. Both of them were on the easier side of things.

Surprisingly manageable — the interview felt more like a conversation than an interrogation. It began with a sequence of coding questions, including one on merging overlapping intervals. The real challenge came during system design, where I had to outline a URL shortener service that could scale impressively. Interestingly, I had just looked at a similar architecture on PracHub, which helped me articulate my thoughts clearly. The technical questions wrapped up with validating a binary search tree, and I ended with a positive vibe. I received an offer, but ultimately chose to decline it.

Question 1
Merge overlapping intervals from a list of time ranges
Was not too difficult. three total interviews all on the same day back to back. technical one, behavioral one and a case which was more of just a debugging question

Entretien
Interviewed for an engineer position, the interview was a joke. Asked basic OOP question with a few follow ups - no system design portion. Interviewer was very laid back and chill, didn't take it to seriously.
