Question 1
Tell me 2 things you wish to change if given a opportunity to re-design.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Skyscanner (Edinburgh, Scotland) in Apr 2025
Interview
Very pleasant interview process. It is a 3 step process, the first part speaking about a project you've worked on. Then followed by 2 back to back interviews: a system design interview and a culture fit.
You don't interview with anyone with the team throughout the whole process. But I believe they give you the chance to speak to the manager of the team if they make an offer.
There was no programming exercise which I found refreshing and nice.
Nice and easy interview process. 1 screening round, system design and behavioural round. System design round went well. I came to know behavioural had lower scoring but then turned out positive.
