Neutral

New York, NYPosted Jan 2026 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I went through an initial phone screening that was built around brain-teaser style questions, and I remember walking out feeling like the early momentum was everything.

The next step was an onsite that was intense and unforgiving: there were brainteasers again, and there was some coding involved during the day.

What threw me off was the way the onsite ended early. When I didn’t hit the mark on the first wrong answer, the rest of the interview window basically stopped and I didn’t get to finish the day as planned. The tone I experienced felt less like a normal back-and-forth and more like a hard cutoff once it became clear I wasn’t responding the way they wanted.

I didn’t get an offer, and the reflection afterward was blunt: this wasn’t a forgiving process.
