San Francisco, CAPosted Mar 2024 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I went through a behavioral round followed by a technical interview where the questions looked like modified LeetCode problems on a coderpad.

The technical part put a heavy emphasis on graphs, specifically DFS and BFS approaches. The problem overall wasn’t too difficult, and it didn’t feel like the interviewer was trying to trick me so much as test whether I could navigate the graph traversal concepts.

What stood out was the pairing of a normal behavioral conversation with a pretty direct graph-focused coding session. By the end, I felt like I understood what they wanted from me during the technical work, even though there wasn’t a positive result afterward.
