Heads-up
Reports differ: a 2025 senior report had 45 minutes with an algorithm design part; another 2025 candidate had 60 minutes on a LeetCode-style problem; a 2024 backend screen was 15 minutes on background and projects, then 30 minutes of coding. A 2026 guide says the screens skip LeetCode puzzles for API design and data modeling.
