To be prepared for the technical interview process, former software engineers advise that students study medium leetcode and be able to solve scripting and OS questions. Following the technical, software engineers should also expect 5 final round interviews with different full-time members on the team – topics for these interviews are dependent on the specific team, but have reportedly ranged from operating systems to machine learning to react front end developer questions.
