Interview process

The process was confusing and leaned more towards DSA than I was expecting. It was basically trying to figure out a deduplication using hashsets.

  1. 1

    Technical round

    1. Q1. Design an RL environment.

Tips from the candidate

Study DSA even though it is a system design problem. I think the interview was very casual and just not well thought out.

Company culture

Very young and not fully thought out in terms of the approach to handling the interview.
