Candidatei-me online. O processo levou 2 semanas. Fui entrevistado pela Confluent em nov. de 2018
Entrevista
Overall, the process was executed very well.
The recruiter sent me a preparation doc beforehand so I knew what to expect. Had 2 Hangouts interviews which were 45 minutes each (solved 1 leetcode easy during the 1st one and leetcode easy + medium during the 2nd one). The interviewers I met are quite nice and encouraging. Got a decision within a week. The compensation's pretty competitive.
The first call with the recruiter covered some basic background and expectations. I was also asked to walk through two coding problems verbally, which felt more like a screening than a full technical round.
I completed the OA as requested, but didn’t hear anything back—even after following up via email. No rejection email, no updates. Pretty disappointing communication.
I’ve had smoother interview flows at other companies recently. For comparison, I’ve been using platforms like Hack2Hire and LeetCode to prep for these types of interviews, and most other companies give at least some feedback or closure. This was one of the few cases where the process just dropped off entirely.

Pergunta 1
Basic background questions from the recruiter
Two simple algorithm questions explained out loud (no code submission)
The interview process included a standard LeetCode problem and a system design interview. I spoke with a new grad interviewer for the coding round, and discussed system design with a manager.

There are two rounds: the first is a technical round focused on data structures and algorithms (leetcode medium I think), and the second is a final behavioral round with HR.
