United StatesPosted Apr 2026 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I went through an OA followed by a behavior-heavy interview that still included a small amount of technical depth.

OA (two easy LeetCode questions) — I completed two easy LeetCode-style problems; afterward, my interviewers reviewed my approach.
Behavioral + resume review (plus a medium technical question at the end) — The main interview focus was in-depth behavioral questions and extensive resume discussion, with a short technical segment covering a medium-level concept. Outcome: I didn’t get an offer; the takeaway was to articulate your reasoning clearly when walking through interview-level technical questions.
