Summary

I interviewed for an SDE position at Razorpay, which involved a machine coding round and a hiring manager round. Despite successfully completing the machine coding challenge, I was ultimately rejected.

Full Experience

HR contacted me in mid-May for the SDE position and initiated the interview process. There were two main rounds:

  1. Machine Coding Round: I was asked to design a Rating service. The initial requirement was for a single user, which then needed to be scaled for multiple users, much like a survey system. I successfully coded and tested my solution and cleared this round.
  2. Hiring Manager (HM) Round: This round involved in-depth discussions about my past projects and the tech stack I've worked with. There were a few questions related to automation, which I struggled to answer. I clearly communicated to the interviewer that my experience was purely on the backend side and I had no prior knowledge of automation. I realize I might need to upskill in that area and be more precise about related workflows in the future.

Unfortunately, the final verdict was a rejection.

Q1
Design Rating Service
System Design

Design a Rating service with the initial requirement for a single user, then extend it to support multiple users. The service should function similarly to a survey system where users can provide ratings.
