The interview experience was quite positive and covered a blend of technical and behavioral aspects. It began with a series of database-related questions, focusing on schema design, query optimization, and scalability considerations. These allowed me to demonstrate my understanding of relational and non-relational database models, indexing strategies, and evaluation of options like PostgreSQL, Aurora, and Algolia—topics I’ve actively explored in recent projects.
Next, we transitioned into GoLang-based questions, which probed my proficiency with the language's syntax, data structures, and problem-solving abilities. I was asked to debug snippets, implement efficient algorithms, and explain concepts like goroutines and memory management—all of which aligned well with the hands-on Go programming I’ve done.
