I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Shopee
Interview
1 coding test and 2 technical interviews. The coding test had 2 questions, and they were easy and medium difficulty, They were about heaps and double-ended queues. During the interview, there was a question on writing an SQL query and command line applications. Overall, the interview questions were much more difficult than the coding test. In the second interview, there were communication barriers because I could not speak mandarin well.
