Interview Process
I had my phone screen with Roblox. The interviewer first asked some general questions about my background and experience. Then, he proceeded to ask a technical question related to rate limiting. The problem involved designing a system that would limit the number of requests a user can make in a given timeframe. We discussed various approaches, including using token buckets and leaky buckets. The interviewer was friendly and encouraged me to think aloud to better understand my thought process. After discussing the problem for about 20 minutes, the interviewer moved on to behavioral questions, focusing on teamwork and conflict resolution. Overall, the interview took about 25 minutes.
