Roughly 5 rounds of interviews, recruiter is very responsive to clear out doubts even after working hours
- 1st round is basic HR screening, knowing about your education, skillset, past experience and etc.
- 2nd round is 3 easy-medium leetcode level questions on online coding platform
- 3rd round is still coding interview with existing engineers. easy level, more towards thinking-out-loud style and screen sharing is required. some discussion about algorithm complexity maybe needed.
- 4th round is domain knowledge testing. testing on general understanding of computer science fundamental, Java language and Android knowledge.
- 5th round is culture fit round, where it is more like a chatting session, which organiser is trying to understand more about your personality, and how would you react given certain scenarios.

I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Tempest Tech (Singapore) in Nov 2021
Interview
There are 3 rounds for me:
- First round is an Online Assessment on Coderbyte, similar to Leetcode Medium questions
- Second round is 2 hours long with algorithm/problem solving, computer science theory, and culture fit. For algorithm questions, the interviewer doesn't expect the code to run, but prefers candidates to be able to explain the code, so not much time on debug code. For computer science skills, the interviewer asks basic questions such as OOP, Computer Network, ... For culture fit interview, the interviewer asks normal questions such as tell about your strength/weakness
- For the third round, it is a quick talk with a manager in the US
