The interview process began with a recruiter screen, where I discussed my background, skills, and goals, along with job expectations. This was followed by a timed technical assessment on CodeSignal to test my coding abilities in a mix of algorithmic and problem-solving tasks. I then proceeded to a pair programming challenge with an engineer, where, unlike the standard LeetCode-style questions I had prepared for, I worked on a collaborative, real-world scenario to showcase my problem-solving and communication skills. Although I didn’t advance further in the process, this experience provided valuable insight into each stage’s expectations.

I had a pretty good experience interviewing with linktree, everyone I've met on the team was fun and amazing, the recruiters did a really good job on coordinating the interviews. Initial coding exercise with 2-3 leetcode easy-medium questions 1 data structure coderpad interview, 1 frontend react coderpad and 1 backend coderpad interview.
