I applied to rokt in the month of early october for the role of Software engineer - Build and Release Infrastructure. After giving the OA, I recieved a mail from the recruiter informing about the next steps. I scheduled the next steps for my Technical Screen with the one of the team member. Screen 1 : This round is four part interview (Intro + concepts + coding + Q/A) Everything went fine answered most of it was hinted on moving to next rounds. After a week I had a super casual talk with recruiter, explained about what it is like working with Rokt in nyc all the fun stuff etc. Then told me team is interested to do loop rounds. Scheduled my loop within the next week. (Day 1)Loop 1 - The intereviewer probed me on System design it was a 2 part question on implementing the design and deep dives eventually on Scalability, consistency and latency reduction, optimizing query response times. Super friendly encouraged me to work on my design and evaluated me on my trade-offs and choices. Probed on my choices and deep dives on tech stack. (Day 1)Loop 2 - Behavioral - Manager round. She seemed super friendly and had a casual chat on what my experiences were and what rokt does about its products. Emphasized on what production issues I faced and how were the long term fixes and short term fixes. (Day 2)Loop 3 - Coding + project outline design The interviewer just joined for the sake of interviewing asked me to code a stack based Q. asked complexity, dry run of tc. Moved on the the project design asked me to discuss on my fav project and deep dived into kubernetes internals. Recruiter told me I passed day 1 loop and smashed the sys design round. and told me will get back to me after day 2 loop After two days recruiter called me and told me team isn't moving forward. and wouldn't continue with the final bar raiser round! No right feedback was given on what went wrong. !!!Rokt if you are seeing this have to balls to tell what the feedbacks are.!!! Absolute BS!!
