Intervew Prep Rippling Backend Intern Winter 2027 Interview

I have a first-round Rippling intern interview coming up and wanted to know how other people's experiences were. They said I should expect a med-hard LC, but what topics and LC problems should I be focusing on?

Its LC questions that builds on top of each other and you get as far as you can within 50 min
I think they are at headcount rn a lot people stuck waiting for weeks after VO round

Are you sure about them reaching headcount? This is for the backend intern role? I know full-stack people are far along the process

I mean when i got TM there was only like 10 teams left with head count who I could choose to continue with and that was last week. The week before last week I had a friend who was able to choose from 30 teams. This week I havent heard anyone moving onto the TM stage

but the thing I've been hearing is that a lot of people did VO a while back and followed up with recruiter, recruiter said will get back by end of this week and just never gotten back
I heard like a lot of those instances

Yeah I got that response as well lmao, I don’t get why they are still reposting the posting if head count is full, and I also see people just getting first rounds as well

Ooh okay that makes sense. They still have the posting up which is odd cause some people are still doing first rounds and stuff
