United StatesPosted Jul 2024 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I had a fairly standard two-part technical flow with both behavioral and technical components, but the real weight was on the coding and language fundamentals.

The coding portion ran on CoderPad, and I had to answer a handful of technical questions focused mainly on C/C++ programming. They ramped difficulty as we went, so it kept turning from “simple implementation” into “actually get the details right” territory.

The other time I saw the same general shape, it was a one-hour technical leetcode-style interview where there were no behavioral questions at all. I shared my screen and wrote the code on CoderPad, and the setup made it clear they had direct visibility into how I built and debugged the solution.

I didn’t receive an offer from what I went
