I applied online. I interviewed at Nebius in Jul 2025
Interview
The technical interview process was a significant disappointment. The problem was not from a pre-vetted list but was typed out live by the interviewer during our call. This live-typed question contained several typos and logical inconsistencies, making it impossible to understand the actual requirements. The interviewer was unable to clarify the ambiguities when asked, and a promised visual explanation using a graph was never provided. After several attempts to get a clear definition of the task, I felt it was unproductive to continue and chose to withdraw from the process. An interview should be a fair assessment, and this felt unstructured and unfair to the candidate. Please standardize your technical interview questions and ensure they are thoroughly vetted for errors and ambiguity before being presented to candidates. Provide interviewers with clear guidelines on how to explain problems and a backup plan if a question proves to be flawed.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
A 2D path finding question. The question itself is fine but the typed question has typo and. the provided example has error
First round has 4 coding tests in HackerRank. The other rounds will be conducted later. The question levels are like easy - medium - medium - hard. However, the time for the test is unlimited but expected to be done under 2 hours.
Hr will contact you within a week after finishing the tests.
Recruiter screen + tech screen. And some questions about concurrency. Able to do interview in python. Used a coderpad type environment. Recruiter was kind of confused about which team would be a good fit.
the interview process was straightforward. Recruiter call -> coding round -> system design -> hiring manager. The questions were also leet code medium to leet code hard. Overall, it was a smooth process and was really quick.

Question 1
The most important were the system design and the coding questions based on that I was evaluated.
