Interview Process
The interview began with a brief introduction about my background and experience. The interviewer then explained the structure of the interview process. We started with a coding challenge related to rate limiting. The prompt was to implement a rate limiter function that limits the number of requests a user can make in a given time window. I was asked to explain my thought process as I wrote the code in an online editor. After completing that, we discussed potential edge cases and optimization strategies. The conversation moved toward behavioral questions where I was asked to talk about a time when I overcame a challenge in a team setting. Overall, the interview lasted about 27 minutes without any technical issues. Towards the end, the interviewer provided some feedback and mentioned I would hear back soon regarding the next steps.
