The short version
Why Postman interviews is hard
Postman builds tools for developers, so your interviewer is also your user. Opinions about what makes an API pleasant, and about where developer tools usually get in the way, count as real signal here in a way they would not elsewhere.
What to expect
The rounds you should rehearse
Coding and design, frequently on a collaborative or versioned data model.
System design
syncing workspaces across users, conflict handling, and offline behaviour.
Product
what you would change about a developer workflow you personally find annoying.
Avoid these
The mistakes that quietly sink candidates
Having no opinions about API design in an interview for an API company.
Ignoring collaboration and versioning, which is where the hard problems actually live.
Describing developer experience in slogans rather than in specific friction you have felt.
Reading the questions is not practicing them.
Run a live voice mock tuned to Postman-style loops. It follows your answers, probes the gaps, and scores you like a senior interviewer would.
