Interview
Recruiter reached out via handshake and then I applied online. No one reached out for about 2 months. Then I reached out to the recruiter on Handshake again. Got Hackerrank assessment the following day. Two Dynamic programming questions and one design question. Got selected for interview. Interviewer was nice. I thought the interview went well but they sent me a rejection even after solving the problem successfully with optimal solution.

Other Software Engineer(Internship) interview reviews for Pocket Gems
I faced the first technical interview. I was sent a hackerrank link. There were 3 questions. First two were coding questions and 1 was a code review question. All the questions were manageable not so difficult. I found code review pretty easy. Waiting for decision.

Interview
It was a difficult interview with little to no help from interviewer. Despite expecting game development questions, it was a standard tech interview which felt weird. I also studied on their games but that was not helpful for the interview
