Tempe, AZPosted Aug 2026 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I applied and then waited a while—eventually I got an OA, cleared it, and then moved through an interview loop that wasn’t purely standard DSA.

The OA wasn’t just basic DSA either; it included DSA plus an AI-assisted element, and then I was scheduled for two more rounds after that. During those interviews, I was asked two DSA problems and also several behavioral questions. The whole process happened in Boston, and I remember that the company covered expenses. Even with that support, the challenge was the mix: the behavioral questions and the DSA both mattered, and the DSA portion wasn’t something I could rush through.
