Full Experience
I recently went through the interview process for a Software Development Engineer role at Arintra. The HR contacted me after finding my profile on Instahyre, and the process was quite smooth and quick, with interviews scheduled within a few days. There were a total of 3 virtual rounds. The first round, lasting about 60 minutes, focused on Data Structures and Algorithms and problem-solving, involving two LeetCode medium-level problems on topics like Arrays, Stack, Greedy, and Hashing. The focus was on writing clean, optimized code and explaining my approach clearly. The second round was a 60-minute System Design session, where I had to design BookMyShow, covering both High-Level Design (entities, service interactions, scalability, caching) and Low-Level Design (class design, relationships, seat booking logic). The third round was a discussion with the Head of Engineering. Unfortunately, the position was filled before the final evaluation, so I didn’t move forward with the hiring process.
