I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Palantir Technologies (New York, NY) in Oct 2016
Interview
An online coding test, followed by a phone interview, then an onsite interview in NYC (3 interviews on one day). You better know your breadth first search, and its applications! 2 out of 5 of the coding questions involved BFS in the solution. I've also interviewed at Google, and it seems like Palantir cares more about your actual talking/social skills, in addition to coding skills. You don't get the full 45 mins for coding - much time is spent talking about your previous experience.
Applied via standard process. Went through recruiter screen. Went through a technical screen with an engineer. Then went through a virtual onsite interview with 2 sessions: debugging and LLD. Overall experience was great but I bombed the LLD session.

Question 1
What is one thing the hiring team should remember you as?
I applied online. I interviewed at Palantir Technologies (London, England) in Aug 2023
Interview
Started off with an OA, 3 questions in 60 minutes, 1 dynamic programming, followed by a SQL and an API-based question. Passed all test cases with the latter two but not the first, so did not progress to next stage. Dynamic programming question was difficult! Otherwise, nice to see some questions related to actual SWE day-to-day and not just competitive programming challenges.
