I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Qualtrics (Seattle, WA) in Nov 2015
Interview
Had one HR phone interview, and one round phone interview.
Then got four-round onsite interviews. People are friendly.
Mainly technical.
- Number of Islands
- Serialize and Deserialize
- Regular Expression
- Counting Sort
- Longest palindromic substring
It is strange that there is no design related question asked. Basically it will be helpful to nail the online OJ. However, if you really nailed the OJ, you will probably already get an offer in other big names. (Facebook, Google, etc)
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Qualtrics
Interview
The whole process was remote. I was referred by a friend who works here.
1. Chat with recruiter
2. Chat with hiring manager (behavioral questions)
3. Coding Question on hacker rank
4. System Design question - interviewer didn't turn on camera, said very little throughout the process
The recruiter told me that they had been slow in making a decision, that they will get back to me. They never got back to me.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a time that you made a mistake. How did you handle it?
Started with a Recruiter screen - overview about company
ML Knowledge - basics of LLMs and your relevant projects
LeetCode - two basic easy and med leetcode problems
Takes a long time to hear back after each round - better to reach out after each round to ask about next steps.
First step is recriuter screen. Then 45 min technical with a software engineer, final round is 90 min technical and 30 min behavioral. They will have you schedule them on a web service called goodtime. Interviewer was very friendly.
