Sunnyvale, CAPosted Apr 2025 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I had a recruiter screen that was short—about twenty minutes—with basic behavioral questions.

Not long after, I went through a virtual onsite that was split into two parts: a forty-minute discussion with the hiring manager and then another forty-minute technical segment.

The hiring manager portion felt laid-back and conversational, which helped me relax and focus on answering naturally. The technical part included two LeetCode questions, one easy and one medium. With that mix, the whole experience felt approachable rather than overwhelming, and I ended up getting an offer.
