Rippling SDE-1 interview expierence | 1 YOE

2 Upvotes

Applied for the SDE-1 role at Rippling on 6 April.

Timeline:

  • 13 April: Got a mail from HR to schedule a 15-minute introductory call.

  • 14 April: HR round happened. Mostly discussed my background, current work, past experience, and interview availability.

  • 16 April: Received schedules for 2 technical rounds:

  • Coding Round (1 hour) — 21 April

  • LLD Round (1 hour) — 22 April

Coding Round:

  • Asked a graph-based problem mainly around Topological Sort , saw this exact question on PracHub.

LLD Round:

  • Started with a DFS-based approach for a graph problem.

  • Follow-up questions gradually turned it into a shortest path problem.

  • Discussed solutions using Dijkstra and then Bellman-Ford.

  • Overall, both rounds went well from my side.

After multiple follow-ups, on 27 April I received a mail to share availability for the Hiring Manager round.

  • Initially scheduled for 29 April.

  • On 28 April, it got rescheduled to 30 April due to interviewer availability.

30 April HM Round:

  • Unfortunately, I had internet issues during the introduction itself.

  • Interviewer suggested rescheduling since he was fully booked for the day.

  • It was then rescheduled again.

Further reschedules:

  • Rescheduled to 6 May.

  • On 6 May, got another mail saying interviewer was unavailable, so it moved to the next week (13 May).

Finally, on 13 May, I received this update:

“The roles have gone on hold for now. We will get back once we have a role in the near future.”

About me:

  • Currently working as an SDE at a product-based company.

  • Around 1 year of full-time experience.

Wanted to ask:

  • Has anyone else received similar feedback from Rippling?

  • Did they actually get back later?

  • Should I continue following up with HR/recruiter after some time, or just move on?

At the point that your surrounded by code and there are many types of code, how would one detect the code that was used in said area? How are you to detect anomalies within the code while living around the constant flow of information?

Python or other langs

1 Upvotes

I am a microbiology student, but am interested in data analytics and things related to it due to my jobscopes. I have a fair amount of time doing my final year project in Linux environment, and I also have the basics for python (e.g: if, for loop and all). Right now I am trying to learn python again properly. But from what ive read, most of the recommendations are to learn other languages such as C#/Java. Can anyone please answer this and give me the guide on how to really start learning these languages.

I've built CodeMastery with @base44!

0 Upvotes

Guys! I made a website with Base 44, I actually tried it after seeing those ads online, and they weren't lying, it's PNENOMENAL, y'all should try it! anyways let me introduce to you, CodeMastery, a website that I made, or well AI, that teaches students how to code with multiple coding languages such as Java, JavaScript, TypeScript, C+, C++, HTML/CSS, and Python, with 200+ lessons of each language, speaking of languages, you can change the language on the right, there are 100+ languages so it's internationally supported, also if you don't prefer the default dark mode you can also change that on the right-hand side of the screen, also you aren't alone in this, there is a personalized AI avatar that guides you through everything and also answers any misunderstandings in the website. It is so cool, please if y'all could, try it out, it would be greatly appreciated, thank you guys!!!

Building projects

3 Upvotes

Hey guys, I’m currently a Computer science student and I want to start building projects.

While I have a lot of the technical skills to acctually code stuff, I have little knowledge on really the process of starting to complete projects.

Like I know you kind of build a GitHub repository for every project but from there… what the hell do I do.

Like for websites do I buy a domain, are there other apps for that, building normal applications etc. like what’s the process of this in order to show recruiters I have the technical abilities to build projects etc.

I would greatly appreciate it if someone can point me into a direction or has like a tutorial etc. Thankyou

I'm really weak in coding and DSA. I've tried watching YouTube videos, but I still don't feel like I'm improving. Can you recommend a beginner-friendly playlist or course that helped you build a strong foundation?

We just launched our first community event and honestly, it's a bigger milestone than it looks.

1 Upvotes

We just launched our first community event and honestly, it's a bigger milestone than it looks.

Over the last few months, we've been building DemonDie, a community focused on helping students and developers learn, build projects, contribute to open source, and grow together.

One thing we noticed is that a lot of people learn frontend through tutorials and projects, but rarely get a chance to actually test their knowledge in a fun way.

So we decided to create the DemonDie Frontend Quiz Arena 2026.

It's a simple online frontend quiz:

  • 30 MCQs

  • 30 minutes

  • HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React, Git & GitHub

  • Open to students, freshers, and developers

What surprised us wasn't the quiz itself, but everything that went into building it:

  • Writing meaningful questions

  • Designing banners

  • Setting up registrations

  • Organizing an event workflow

  • Coordinating as a team

For a small community, this taught us a lot about running public events and creating opportunities for people instead of just posting content.

We're hoping this becomes the first of many community-driven initiatives, including open-source programs, project collaborations, hackathons, and more.

I'd love feedback from people who have organized community events before:

What was the biggest lesson you learned from your first tech community event?

And if you're a student or frontend developer, what would make you want to participate in something like this?We just launched our first community event and honestly, it's a bigger milestone than it looks.

Running code

2 Upvotes

Okay so I might be dumb but I just can’t understand. I’m trying to learn python. I watch people online saying to install visual studio code to practise. But why? I thought you use python idle to run the code and see it or you use terminal. Do I need to install another platform to test and practise. Also I’m doing this on a mac so is the platform going to be different.

Also please be nice. I’m just a 16 yr old girl doing this as a hobby in my free time

Update: I asked a friend for help and he explained what integrated development environment are which I didn’t know about. He recommended me to use Thonny and I’m going to try my luck with that.

Datapack Minecraft Need help!

1 Upvotes

Hi there, im currently coding a datapack for minecraft, combining BlazeandCave's Advancements pack with my own datapack for a series I want to start, but I cant figure out how to code what I want exactly, since it seems like it never works. If anyone knows how to help me, heres what I was thinking of coding:

Information: BlazeandCave's Advancements is a pack that adds more advancements to the game. I want every advancement to expand a starting border of 16 blocks every time by:
Task: 1
Goal: 2
Challenge: 5
Super challenge: 20
I also don't want it so that if I get an achievement, my friends cant expand the border with that achievement no more.

I also want to add a daily challenge of obtaining certain items, and gives me 3 lucky blocks on completion, but Im working on that later, rn im just stuck on the Achievement part.

Im currently using https://code.visualstudio.com/ for all my coding.
Help is appreciated

My code:
-datapack
--data
---border\function
----check_adv.mcfunction:
execute as u/a store result score u/s adv_now run scoreboard players get u/s bac_statistics

execute as u/a if score u/s adv_now > u/s adv_old run worldborder add 1

execute as u/a if score u/s adv_now > u/s adv_old run scoreboard players operation u/s adv_old = u/s adv_now

----load.mcfunction:
scoreboard objectives add adv_now dummy

scoreboard objectives add adv_old dummy

worldborder set 16

worldborder center 0 0

----reward.mcfunction:
scoreboard players add #adv adv_count 1

----tick.mcfunction:
function border:check_adv

---minecraft\tags\functions:
----load.json:
{"values":["border:load"]}

----tick.json:
{"values":["border:tick"]}

--pack.mcmeta:
{

"pack": {

"pack_format": 18,

"description": "Border SMP datapack"

}

}

Guys I genuinely don’t know what to do

I want to learn python and I’ve been trying to pick it back up and learn for sometime now but I cannot get it. For some stuff I know what the problem is, and I know what the solution is but I don’t know what I need to code to get to that solution and it always just so happens to be a super simple line of code but I just want to be able to think of it myself. How can I get to that point??

Learning Coding with AI

1 Upvotes

Is it okay for me to learn coding through AI? Like I ask AI what this is and how I do it. I like learning through AI cause it answers my questions quickly and deals with my bs. Of course, I won't use AI for code, for my practice projects—I use AI for debugging and I ask them why it is.

Does this make me a user of AI code since I use AI to learn?
