United StatesPosted Sep 2025 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

My first Zoom round started with quick behaviorals, then shifted into a longer technical problem that I discussed directly with the interviewer.

The structure felt very standardized, almost like it mirrored an example video they had published.

The technical segment wasn’t framed as a coding-heavy exercise; it was more about walking through reasoning in real time, with the interviewer drawing out how I approached the problem rather than just wanting a final answer.

I didn’t move forward. The overall feel was that it was more of a guided conversation than an adversarial test, but I still didn’t succeed in making it past the initial stage.
