Interview Process
I interviewed for a Software Development Engineer position at Scale.ai. The interview consisted of a phone screen focusing on a standard low-level design (LLD) question. The scenario involved writing functions based on event data provided in JSON format. The task was to return the nearest event to a target location and to provide specific event details, including the time. The interview was divided into two parts: I was first asked to solve the initial question, and once I completed that, I was given the second part.
