I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Okta (San Jose, CA) in Oct 2020
Interview
I reached out to recruiter in LinkedIn and then process started. Screening was with hiring manager followed by on-site. Screening was mix of machine learning, behavioral, choosing questions. On-site had bunch of rounds - 1. Big Data (highly unprofessional interviewer who was laughing in wrong answers). 2. Coding round (simple problem). 3. Cultural/leadership 4. Design and architecture.
In the end they offered compensation which was very low for Bay area standards and hence I rejected the offer.
1. Screening round- DSA based one problem (stack based)
2. DSA round- 2 probelms (one array and one graph based)
3. Debugging - Need to find bugs in a function and resolve it
4. HLD Design round
5. Hiring Manager ROund

Interview
Recruiters reached out to me twice, and both times proceeded to ghost me. I don't think I'll waste my time dealing with this company again as clearly they don't know what they're doing.
