I gave interview in Pune.
Recruiter calls you first and gives brief information about the company.
Interview process was too much focus on algorithms.
I had total 5 interviews including a 4 hour coding test
1. In the first interview, I was given a live debugging to fix binary tree problem. It was taken by manager.
2. Then I was given 4 hour coding test to solve 2 problems out of 3. One is DS structure problem. LRU implementation and second one was thread implementation and one was again DS i.e stack implementation.
3. Coding round is followed by code review when panelist ask you about the algorithms used in problem solving and generic code review related questions.
4. Since I gave an interview for linux , the one who interviewed me for code review didn't ask me much about linux. So they scheduled one more round for linux. But it turned out to be again DS and algorithms round, and very a few linux related questions.
5. First 4 rounds were nice and I was positive about the organisation.
Then last round was scheduled with the director.
That was not really good.
He had very investigative approach while interviewing.
He was not very professional. I didn't like the way he took an interview. General discussion was missing. I felt like I'm being interrogated, I wouldn't have joined if I would have been selected because of this round with the director who has joined crowdstrike recently from Symantec.
But plus one for recruiter, he did a good job in the interview process.
I applied online. I interviewed at CrowdStrike in Dec 2025
Interview
First, HR interview. Then, the technical interview. The interviewers didn't introduce themselves, just 2 people joined the meeting and started the interview. They asked some wrong questions related to technical issues like how to sort an object in Java. It was odd. Finally, I did not have the opportunity to ask them my questions.
I applied online. I interviewed at CrowdStrike (Toronto, ON)
Interview
They had set an initial interview that they cancelled last minute and rescheduled it. Interviewer was ok. They asked typical interview questions: like tell me about yourself, why do u want to leave current job,

Question 1
they also directly asked if I am a citizen, PR or on visa,if so what type of visa which is very un-professioanl and I believe illegal in Canada, u can just ask" Are you legally entitled to work in Canada?", did not hear back from them.
Medium level Leetcode style questions to solve in a shared IDE prompt. Including various algorithms and numerous data structure.
Some guidance was provided from time to time with the sole purpose of exploring the different solutions.
