I applied for an internship at Databricks in Berlin. Some time later, I was asked to take a proctored online assessment on CodeSignal. The test contained four questions that have to be completed within 90 minutes. The test was not hard algorithmically, but all four problems were some kind of "corner-case hell" that required very careful manipulation of indexes. So, I took the test and scored 600/600. Roughly a month later, I received a "no" ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It starts with the introduction. Then give you a code question. you need to explain your thought of the algorithm to solve this question. Then write the code and do the self-check

Entretien
Two technical Questions --> One Algorithms and one Technical Question. Two back to back interviews one hour each. Small behavioral section and technical as well. Walk through your solution for each with follow ups as well.
I had a phone screen and two sets of technical interviews afterwards. Each interview had one question, and they were about medium/hard-level data structures and algorithm questions that require an implementation and complexity analysis.
