I had a phone interview with Roblox that lasted about 9 minutes. The interviewer first introduced himself and explained the structure of the interview. They then asked a coding question related to rate limiting. The question focused on designing a rate limiter for an API. The interviewer provided examples and edge cases to consider while designing the solution. After discussing my approach and thought process, I wrote code to demonstrate my solution. We went through a few test scenarios, and I explained my reasoning for the design choices I made. Overall, it was a good experience, and the interviewer was very friendly and encouraging.
