San Francisco, CAPosted May 2019 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I went through a fairly standard early pipeline: the recruiter contacted me by email, then I had an HR screen, followed by two technical phone screens.

After those, I came in for an onsite.

Onsite was a mix of impressions. The office setup felt congested, and that general environment didn’t help my focus. One interviewer asked questions in a way that was too vague, and I wasn’t sure what they were actually looking for. That uncertainty made the round feel less like demonstrating my skills and more like guessing the target.

I didn’t move forward to an offer after the onsite. The most memorable part was how hard it was to read the interviewer’s intent, which in turn made my performance feel harder to evaluate fairly.
