I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Demandbase (Gurgaon, Haryana) in Jul 2024
Interview
The process had 5 rounds:
Round 1 is a short interview just to discuss your projects
Round 2 with the same person as Round 1 and was about algorithms understanding and data structure
Round 3 on leetcode coding
Round 4 on design
Round 5 on architecture problems
The questions asked were of good standards and the process was completed very quickly.
I received an offer but decided to reject because during the process I identified that the interviewers were rude, rigid and not open to hear my point of view. They had cut me in between when I tried to give a different point of view.
The recruiter was easy to talk with and I received feedback promptly.
I applied through other source. I interviewed at Demandbase
Interview
Interview consisted of 3-4 rounds . Coding , High Level Design, LLD. etc. The interviewers were alright. The feedback for interviews are not given on time. Even after following up the recruiters do not have the courtesy to close the loop. They do not have the courtesy to at least give closure to the candidate.
Interview questions [1]

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Demandbase (Hyderābād) in Jun 2025
Interview
Basic coding test that not even aligns with the standards of coding required at SSE level.
Called for in person interview on Saturday . Took the whole day for 3 rounds . 9 AM to 5 PM
Post that recruiters are ghosting the candidates.
Waste of time, initially recruiter reached out saying its remote role, they are planning to open office in Bengaluru, later after giving 3 rounds got to know the role is more of hyderabad based, and Bengaluru office has no clear roadmap, 3 rounds were in depth, SD was particulary good, but EM seems to be not having technical knowledge, recruiter stopped replying after EM round. just be aware from these recruiters
