United StatesPosted Apr 2026 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

My recruiter call ended up feeling surprisingly relaxed, and it was about 30 minutes.

We covered my background and a bit of basic coding before I moved on.

The next step was the technical round, and I was honestly more nervous than I needed to be. The question was about finding the k closest points to the origin, and it felt very close to something I’d practiced days earlier. After that, I had a behavioral interview.

The offer came through pretty quickly after the interviews, and I accepted. Looking back, the biggest surprise was how quickly the tension lifted once the technical question landed—it didn’t match my worst expectations.
