Los Angeles, CAPosted Jan 2022 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I went through a multi-week loop that took around three weeks, and it mostly centered on coding and problem-solving.

The early stage was an online assessment, followed by a technical interview that lasted under an hour. In that first technical interview, the problems leaned heavily toward data structures and algorithm-style questions.

After that, the process continued into additional technical rounds. What made the experience feel rough was how unclear the expectations were, even when the problem itself was reasonable. During the coding portion, the interviewer seemed impatient when I tried to explain my thought process, and that threw off my flow more than the underlying difficulty did.
