Interview Process
I attended a phone screen interview with Roblox for a Software Engineer position. The interview was mainly focused on a couple of coding problems. The first problem I encountered was about implementing a Rate Limiter. The interviewer wanted me to solve it with various complexities and optimizations. We discussed the scenarios of applying different rate limiting techniques like token bucket and leaky bucket. I explained the algorithms and their pros and cons extensively. After the coding questions, there were some behavioral questions about teamwork and handling conflicts in a project setting. Overall, the interview lasted about 30 minutes.
