Interview process
I have completed the Online Assessment as of now and I am waiting for my results. The most important thing is to practice reading comprehension and extracting the necessary rules/constraints and using them properly within time constraints. Doable with enough practice.

Online assessment
Coding- Q1. Question was about building an asynchronous event processing system. It was mainly about string parsing, dict manipulation, state management and applying logic with given rules. There were 4 parts, each part building on top of the previous one.
Tips from the candidate
String parsing, dict manipulation, state machines, applying logic with given rules are mainly the core focus. Need to get comfortable studying a long question with requirements, constraints and rules and apply them quickly. Writing clean code with proper variable naming and necessary helper functions is also important
Company culture
Refreshing to see non-leetcode questions in the interview process and I like the fact that more emphasis is on real world problem solving.
