Interview Process
The interviewer was friendly and introduced himself as a member of the logistics team responsible for last-mile delivery. After my self-introduction, he asked why I wanted to join DoorDash. I provided a vague response, mentioning my previous experience in B2B and my desire to transition to B2C. The coding part of the interview focused on the Dasher pay calculation, which I later learned is a common question. Initially, I found the system design question frustrating due to its numerous corner cases. After some guidance from the interviewer, I was able to complete the first part of the problem.
