Summary
I interviewed at PICE for a Senior Backend Engineer/SDE 4 role in June 2025. I struggled with some rounds due to insufficient preparation, particularly LLD and a complex anagram problem, leading me to self-reject the offer.
Full Experience
I was interviewed at PICE in June 2025 for Senior backend engineer/SDE 4 Role. The interview was for 2 hours.
Somehow my HLD round was better. My LLD and last question went horribly wrong as i wasn't well prepared. So i self rejected myself in my mind. Pretty sure i will get a rejection email in a few days.
Interview Questions (5)
HLD for Uber.
Cricbuzz database schema was given and i had to find top 3 run scorers, the country they play for and team for which they played most matches.
LLD for BookMyShow.
A list of strings is the input and you need to group the anagrams based on a sub anagram subset with length >= 2.
Preparation Tips
My LLD and the complex anagram problem went horribly wrong as I wasn't well prepared for these areas.
