Summary

I interviewed for an SDE-1 position at Osfin, which involved three rounds: a technical coding round, a Low-Level Design round, and a behavioral round with the CFO. Although I received an offer, I ultimately decided to decline it due to a negative interaction with one of the co-founders.

Full Experience

I recently interviewed for a Software Development Engineer 1 position at Osfin. The process consisted of three distinct rounds.

Technical Round 1 (1 hour)

This round primarily focused on my past projects and the technologies I've worked with. Following the discussion, I was given one coding question to solve.

Low-Level Design (LLD) Round (1 hour)

The LLD round required me to design a Parking Lot system. The expectations included designing the database schema and defining the API endpoints for the system.

CFO Round (30 minutes)

This was a behavioral round where I was asked standard questions, such as "Why are you leaving your current organization?".

I did receive an offer from Osfin, but I ultimately decided to decline it due to an unfavorable interaction and behavior I experienced with one of the co-founders during the interview process.
