C3 AI Forward Deployed Engineer interview questions

4 rounds: 1. recruiter call 2. technical screen (virtual) 1 hour, hackerrank type problem 3. technical onsite (2 hours): 1 dynamic programming q, 1 OOP design problem 4. final call with VPs ( 1 hour). Made it to final call with VPs, but ultimately no offer cited because of lack of culture fit + not enough long-term experience on my resume. Overall, super well organized process, great recruiter (suzanna), and everyone at the company seems super smart and motivated. Definitely got the feeling its a more old-school type enterprise software company: which means great benefits but they expect you to stick around for 4-5 years.

Definitely a thorough and lengthy interview process. Initial screen by the recruiter who reached out on Linkedin, then several rounds of interviews (earlier ones mostly technical, later ones mostly behavioral as they try to assess whether you are a cultural fit). All in all the whole process took nearly 8 weeks from initial contact to receiving the offer. Part of what takes so long is because the later interviews of with upper management that have busy schedules and limited time for interviews. Technical questions were somewhat tough but reasonable (maybe equal to Leetcode medium questions).
