San Francisco, CAPosted Oct 2025 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

Once I passed their OA, I scheduled a first-round virtual interview that was purely technical.

I started by introducing myself, then the interviewer gave me a question and asked me to walk through the code as I implemented it.

It ended up being two questions in 50 minutes, with one feeling easier and the other closer to medium-hard. The pace was quick, but the structure was straightforward: implement, then explain clearly as I went. I didn’t end up getting an offer from that stage, though, and the whole thing felt like a tight test of both coding and communication.
