🏆 How landed on the interview?

Recruiter reached me out in LinkedIn.

Round 1: DSA

Easy45 mins

Question: HashMap + HashSet
Response: This was a very easy round for me , i completed coding + running different test cases in around 30 mins and i did not have much to ask so we finished in around 35 mins


Second question was 2-d array manipulation , finding paths related question.

Round 2: DSA

Moderate1 hr

Question: String manipulation +implement Somewhat Auto complete
This round was a bit difficult but at the end the interviewer was happy with me and we closed this round on a positive note by cracking some jokes .

Round 3: FE domain specific + DSA

Hard45 mins

This was a very hard interview , as Fe domain level went really deep , P.S the interviewer was an author of famous articles that i read before , so we had some really good interaction , FE domain question was more of implementing retry function and then from there we jumped to implementing promises methods (.then , .catch .finally) , talking about CRP's and ways to optimize it .

Round 4: DSA

Moderate45 mins

Question: More related to sequencing of tasks
Response: This interview went almost perfect, I had to write code in Javascript as that was my preferred language ,
Question was more of a topological sorting , but once i solved it , it was more related to promises and different methods of promises such as promise .every etc. to sequence the tasks in orders he wanted


I would say this interview went really well for me , i finished early

Round 5: Googlyness

Moderate45 mins

This round revolved around situations and how would I tackle it .
The interviewer wished me luck and i would say this round went well too.

Final Thoughts

After the interview, I tried to be patient and wait for the feedbacks, from my side what i can say is since i was more of a frontend engineer , I can say to concentrate more on FE side and questions would be a bit simpler when it comes to DS/Algo because they would grill you more on Frontend ,although there is just one domain specific round

After interview i got to know from HR, They would be using Angular and Dart instead of JS and React js, So i am a bit skeptical to accept the offer . Also i might get L3 and not L4 , again not sure here.

My base pay from Google would be less than what i currently get if they gave L3 (P.S its been just a month since i joined a new firm (i had to join since google interview take a lot of time )
