Entretien
I was pretty chill, was asked about how I would design an observability stack for servers in data center. There were questions, but it is mainly about how I am thinking and my approach.

Question 1
How would I keep myself upto date with recent changes
J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. J'ai passé un entretien chez DigitalOcean
Entretien
Very smooth and simple process! my favorite process of any company I have interviewed for. The interviewers seemed genuinely engaged and interested in my experience compared to other companies I have interviewed for. No unnecessary irrelevant tech questions
J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 3 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez DigitalOcean (New York, NY) en avr. 2019
Entretien
2 rounds of interviews, both relatively short (only talked to one person each time), both over video chat
First round: technical, medium difficulty Cracking the Coding Interview-style questions
Second round: technical and behavioral, with more abstract technical questions - talking through how you would handle particular scenario, rather than live coding
I had a deadline for another job, which they were very accommodating of, with only a few days of turnaround between each step of submitting my resume, the interviews, and getting a decision.
The people who interviewed me were my future mentor and manager, which was nice. My only complaint is that it's hard to feel totally confident you'll like the culture of a company without an on-site interview experience.

Question 1
If you had a 100 servers hosting, say, a sports new website, and 3 of them suddenly went down - what would you do/how you would investigate?
