I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Cotality (Irvine, CA) in Dec 2020
Interview
I had a family emergency before the interview but somehow the details got intertwined during the interview. The circumstances are likely beyond the extremes anyone can endure but Mollie Dunner wanted to try to make the best out of it. Although it wasn't working, I'll always remember she at least tried. I have to say that out of every company I've interviewed with: Google, Amazon, Adobe, Palantir, Roblox, Bloomberg, etc. Mollie Dunner and Darshan Kothari at CoreLogic gave me the absolute most inclusive experience I've had and the most effective. This is especially even while having to go through a group panel interview with very talented aspiring engineers.
I only wish they knew how much of a difference they were making.
I couldn't interview any further but I hold this interview with very high regard.
