I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Hopper
Interview
I echo what some others here have said in the past month.
Recruiter was unprofessional. Looked disengaged, did not give an intro about himself or spoke about the company.
Questions that I gave him were not well answered. He actually acted annoyed that I was asking him so many questions. That's because he never spoke to me about the company, the role and all the specifics.
He also was constantly looking to the side as I was giving him answers to his questions.
I would say switch to a video off if you're not interested on a candidate but can't just exit the interview.
The attitude of this recruiter was a turn off for me and it may speak to some other symptoms at the company. I will not continue with the process with them.
The whole vibe was entirely negative.

Question 1
Q: How did you resolve the hackerRanck problem and why?
Ok initial interview with recruiter. seemed friendly enough. engineering manager was not very friendly, didn't ask a lot about background more so wanted to jump to technical question. question was on recursively finding all possible paths from two places given multiple locations.
* Phone screen. I enjoyed talking to the recruiter very much. They clearly elaborated on the open position and shared many details about the teams and the company. Later on, that recruiter did a great job keeping me posted. * Hiring manager round + coding. Mainly we talked about my past experience, achievements, and challenging tasks I worked on. There was a medium LC problem at the end of the round (it was about calculating the stock price) * Another coding interview. I was given an LC-medium problem that I had to solve in 45 minutes. The problem was quite straightforward, but the follow-up questions were quite hard. * System design stage. I was asked to design a part of the Hopper functionality. Unfortunately, I couldn't narrow down the limitations and constraints, so I performed poorly during this stage. However, overall I enjoyed talking to different people at Hopper. Communication was nice and thorough. At the end of the interview process, I had a quick call with the Sr. Engineering Manager, where they provided quite detailed feedback regarding my interview performance and pointed out to the areas requiring improvement.
