I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at ThousandEyes in Mar 2025
Interview
1. Recruiter call
2. Hiring Manager call
3. Coding in a task based style not leetcode style
I did solve the problem but the recruiter reached out to me that they will not continue with the process, asked her for a feedback many times but she didn't back to me
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
not recalling the questions, but general question, be prepared for the coding side
First round: HR screening
Second round: python coding
Third round: Hiring manager
Fourth round: Linux and system troubleshooting
Fifth round: System design
Sixth round: SRE mindset
After six round I got rejected. Interviewers were very humble and made me comfortable in all rounds.
Rejection after six rounds is something disappointing, it takes a lot of energy, efforts and drains you because this process ran for around 45 to 50 days.
