I applied online. I interviewed at SeatGeek in Apr 2026
Interview
First round had a short chat with a recruiter. Than an easy coding interview where you do the Rate Limit leetcode question.
Final round was 2 easy system design questions, a behavioral interview, and a "product feel" interview where you review the design of a page from Seatgeek's website.
Interviewer in the system design round was very rude/disrespectful.
I asked for feedback after getting rejected so I could know how I could improve, and they declined to provide feedback. Kinda messed up since I wasted over a month in their interview process.
The whole process involved several steps including a tech screen a recruiter call and 2 part final rounds.
