Bellevue, WAPosted Mar 2026 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

After applying with a referral, I got an interview call.

I had a one-hour technical coding round that started with a brief intro and then moved quickly into using a coderpad-style environment. One of the tasks involved dynamic programming, and I specifically saw the House Robber problem and then a follow-up version.

The questioning stayed focused on the logic of the DP approach and how to handle the transitions cleanly. I felt the round was straightforward in format and wasn’t overloaded with distractions, which made it easier to focus even though the topic itself required real care to get right.
