This guide is based on general FAANG interview practices and may not reflect specific company procedures.
Senior Scrum Master interviews at FAANG-standard companies typically consist of 6-7 rounds over 3-5 weeks, progressing from recruiter screening through deep technical and behavioral assessments to final bar raiser evaluation. The process assesses core Scrum expertise, leadership maturity, organizational influence, conflict resolution, strategic thinking about agile adoption, and cultural alignment. Unlike technical engineer roles, Scrum Master interviews emphasize behavioral assessment, leadership principles, real-world scenario handling, and demonstrated impact on team and organizational agility.
