Seattle, WAPosted Oct 2026 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I applied and got sent an online assessment that centered on behavioral traits and two LeetCode-style coding questions.

After I passed it, the process moved quickly into a single interview round. That live round mixed a short behavioral segment with a technical section; the behavioral part felt informal and not too drawn out, while the technical portion was medium difficulty and seemed more structured than I expected.

Overall, it felt pretty straightforward and guided. The interviewer walked me through what they were looking for rather than leaving me completely on my own, which made it easier to stay oriented when I got to the coding problems. Time-wise, it didn’t drag on—this was one of the faster journeys
