Interview steps: 1. Recruiter conversation 2. Phone interview (data structures & algorithms) 3. Conversation with a hiring manager 4. Take home coding assignment 5. Onsite (3 technical + 1 behavioral) 6. Onsite2 system design I got rejected after the conversation with the hiring manager. Overall, I enjoyed my conversations with the engineers at Databricks but the interactions with recruiting were not as smooth as they could have been. Coordinating with the recruiter was very difficult. There were several miscommunications along the way. The interview process had a lot of steps and sounded like it would be much more time consuming than traditional software engineering interviews. They are not transparent upfront about what roles are available. They plan to go through the whole interview process first and then assign you to a role. This works great when there are a lot of roles but I was interested in a more specific domain and wanted to make sure there was a role available in that domain, which was difficult for the recruiter to provide information about.
