IsraelPosted Nov 2024 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I had a call from HR first, then an initial technical interview that lasted about an hour.

What surprised me was how minimal it was: the interviewer only asked one technical question.

There wasn’t much time for discussion or for questions from me. It was basically a take-it-and-solve-it screen where I needed to produce the correct solution within the allocated time.

I didn’t receive an offer. The question itself was medium and in trees, and the whole experience felt efficient but also a bit one-sided—more of a test of execution than of back-and-forth problem solving.
