I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Deel (Islamabad, Islamabad) in May 2025
Interview
The process was structured into several stages: initial screening, a home assignment, a technical interview, and a final product-focused case study. Communication was timely, and the recruiter was helpful, though some expectations especially for the product round could've been better explained in advance. Overall, it was fair but challenging.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They asked about backend topics like concurrency, system design, schema design, debugging APIs, and working with queues. The technical interview required deep understanding and thinking on your feet.
For the home assignment, you were expected to give your best including clean architecture, strong test cases, and thorough coverage. It wasn’t just about solving the problem, but showing production-level thinking.
