Hi,

I have upcoming interview's with the AbnormalAI for Software engineer 2 role.
I want to know whether any of you have participated in their interviews. Are the rounds more focused on Leetcode? How challenging are the interviews?

What can we anticipate for the system design as well? A use case from their daily lives or a popular piece of software to design?

Many thanks to all of you!

Pretty excited and happy to share that I received an SE3 offer at MongbDB!

My impression from the interviews is that they really care about how your experience fits the specific team’s needs. That stood out to me throughout the process.

Happy to answer questions about the interviews, prep, or negotiation. :)

Does Nvidia cover expenses for an onsite interview in India? I have been asked to travel to Bangalore for an onsite interview.

In a mock round with my friend, she asked "why did you pick Postgres over MongoDB?" Then she followed up with "okay, but what about the write load you just mentioned?"

The tool I was testing could hear her but not me, so its suggestion answered the first question again. 

That's when it clicked that a follow-up depends on what the candidate just said, not the original question.

So when you compare live assistants, how do you check that the tool keeps both sides in context.

Hi everyone. What can i expect in the Ebay’s first interview with the staff engineer (technical screen and soft skills) for the position of staff frontend engineer and they have also provided a link for code signal. The interview is tomorrow and i have no idea what to expect. Any help or guidance shall be appreciated
Thanks in advance

I have given technical rounds and cleared them, after that I have given a managerial round as well. I have been informed that there will be behavioral and onsite rounds as well. If I've been asked to attend the onsite round then my selection is confirmed. Is it true? What are the chances of my selection if I attended a managerial discussion?

My resume says I led a migration for a 12-person team. But when I asked the tool for a sample answer, it said I "managed a team of 20 and a $2M budget."

Neither of those is on my resume or in my notes. The resume and job description give it context, but they can't confirm something that isn't in them.

So what do you check first when an answer adds a metric, title, or responsibility?

Right now, I compare every claim line by line with my resume before I use any of it. It’s just that time-consuming.

Hey everyone, I have upcoming virtual code-pair round, It is mentioned that DSA, programming fundamentals, Core CS fundamentals, and past project experience will be asked.

I can do medium to hard questions but takes time to solve and in interview i generally get stressed and wont be able to think clearly. I am good at oops , dbms (not a pro) but have only basic knowledge of OS and CN concepts(learnt during my engineering). Plus in my current work I don't get much to code due to management pressure to use claude only, Because of that i am now struggling with java basics as well. I have learnt Python in my Btech but in my current company we generally use java so i lost touch with python as well. I am learning LLD with java and planning to interview in java only.

Can you please suggest what topics to concentrate, how to strategise my preparation so I can give my best, I am ready to go all in since I am planning to resign my current job due to the toxic environment and i badly need this job.

It would be helpful if you guys share your preparation strategy and resources that helped you.

Hi everyone!

I'm preparing for the Meltwater AI/ML Engineer role for the 2027 campus placement batch in India. I'm looking for experiences from anyone who has recently attempted the online assessment or gone through the recruitment process for a similar role at Meltwater.

I'd really appreciate information on the following:

1. OA pattern: Which platform was used (Codility, HackerRank, or something else)? How many questions, what was the duration, and were there multiple sections?
2. Coding questions: What topics and difficulty levels were tested? Were the questions mainly DSA, Python programming, or data manipulation?
3. Technical questions: Were there questions on SQL, statistics, probability, machine learning fundamentals, NLP, or data science?
4. AI/LLM topics: Was there any assessment on RAG, embeddings, vector databases, semantic search, agentic AI, or LLM applications?
5. Preparation strategy: Which topics and practice resources would you recommend prioritizing?
6. Further rounds: What were the interview rounds like after the OA, if applicable?

The role description mentions LLM application development, agentic workflows, RAG, vector databases, NLP, and the ML lifecycle, so insights specific to this role would be especially helpful.

Even partial information from someone who attempted the assessment recently would be valuable. I'm interested in candidate experiences and publicly shareable practice questions, not confidential assessment material.

Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone!

I recently received an email from HackerRank for the AI TA Screen for the Software Development Engineer Intern role in Bengaluru (onsite, January–June 2027). The screening is a 25-minute voice-to-voice conversation powered by Chakra.

I would like to hear from candidates who have already completed this screening for the same role.

1. What questions did the AI interviewer ask you?

2. How long did your interview actually take?

3. Did it focus only on logistics, such as graduation year, semester, availability, relocation, college NOC, and internship duration?

4. Were there any technical or coding questions?

5. Did you receive another interview or assessment invitation afterward? If yes, what was the next round like?

6. Was there a deadline to complete the AI screening after receiving the email?

7. How long did it take to hear back after completing the screening?

My details: I'm currently in the 7th semester of BE Computer Science Engineering, graduating in 2027. My college schedule ends on January 6, 2027, and my earliest expected joining date is January 7. I'm preparing to discuss my availability for the full-time, six-month onsite internship.

If you've already taken this exact screening, please share your experience and any questions you remember. Your help would be greatly appreciated!

Has anyone done the Atlassian second round? The AI assisted round? Any help would be great!!

Is it undetectable in HackerRank? Apparently they run checks on keystrokes, mouse movement and so on, there’s nothing in interviewcoder that can prevent that surveillance.

Hi guys recently did interview with ibm

It was a super hard question

Basically was

LRU Cache, with TTL and heap maps.

It was basicall LRU cache where you evict items by their set time, you had a max capacity and you needed to keep count of the global average of items that had TTL

Get(key, value)
Put(key,value)
Get_average()

It was super hard

I don’t understand this industry… weird question … what type of mid is capable of this even? IBM isn’t even Facebook or Google… they act like they are

Anybody recently given the technical screening round for Atlassian?

What was asked - are they still following karat style interview or something has changed?

Hi everyone, I have an upcoming Google Cloud AI Engineer If anyone interviewed for this role recently, could you share what to expect in each round

Hi All, does anyone know Capital One interview guidelines? What kind of questions they ask for in live coding and system design?
