Entretien
TLDR:
Got invited to the onsite, never ever heard back from them again!!!!
THEY DID NOT REIMBURSE MY TRAVEL EXPENSE ALTHOUGH THEY SAID THEY WOULD.
1. HR call
2. Codility
3. Live coding on skype, and quick general interview
4. On site interview which consisted of 4 interviews, one coding, one hr, one general with team lead and one architecture.
You are contacted by recruitment coordinator whose role is to provide you with neccesary info. I didnt receive ANY RESPONSE FROM her EVER. I asked to confirm the interview before I invested my own money(that was supposed to be reimburst) - no answer. I asked other stuff as well, no response at all.
My question: My do you keep recruitment coordinators if bots are better?
All the interviewers were very nice and professional. I will not post questions, because I think its not fair. We had nice talk, I almost solved the coding challenge, I think I did good.
Three weeks passed and no info. I asked recruitment coordinator, but I didnt expect much - and nothing has happened.
I then contacted my recruiter directly and weirdest thing happened!
He replied hes sorry and he will call me, and then guess what.
NOTHING.
HE HAS NEVER REPLIED ANY OF MY EMAILS AGAIN.
(About a month later I got an automated email, saying that I was not selected, probably they had to close the process in their system)
How disrespectful is that? I invested my own time, went there to Berlin(from abroad), it was little bit stressful and they dont even care to send feedback.
No money back also, be careful!
It was 6 different interviews. Initial Code test, 1 HR, one team discussion, and about 3 technical interviews.
It took about 2 weeks to finish the interview, and one more week to get the feedback.

Around 3 months to finish. I found the overall process a little bit frustrating. During the final interview, there were 4 rounds. They swapped SD and coding interviews but did not inform me earlier. Also, I had to send a follow-up email to get feedback if I was selected for the final interview. The recruiter said she forgot to email me. The interviewers were great. I learned lots of things from them and I quite enjoyed each session. But the management and overall interview process was not smooth.

Question 1
Basic CS and android related questions. Easy/Medium LC problems for problem solving. Need to code in System Design which was not expected. System design interview was very detailed and I had to write codes for all modules.
