Applied Online, about 1 month later was emailed asking for phone screening. After quick phone screen they scheduled a phone interview with member of Technical Writing team. Questions were too easy, and I remember the interviewer saying something along the lines of "making sure I knew how to use a computer." Hardest question asked was if given a sorted list of integers, how would i find a particular element and give runtime (easy). Asked weird easy questions like how I would find a list of all the processes running on my computer (in any operating system I wanted to answer in). Also asked why you would want to use a database over just storing things in a text file. So, I easily passed that and was given an extremely relevant assignment to return to them in 3 - 4 days. The assignment was to read the tutorials they already have for a specified software and create an additional tutorial which they also specified for me. This assignment was really good and I believe very true to the type of work someone in this position would be doing. I nailed the assignment and in a few days they emailed me back asking availability for an onsite interview. I had a quick conversation with my recruiter about what my onsite interviews would entail, and she mentioned a writing test and technical questions. Whiteboard coding (or any coding) was not mentioned. I live on the east coast, so the onsite interview consisted of flying in one day, interviewing the next, and leaving the day after that. The hotel they put me up in was very fancy, and they paid for everything. The day of my interview I spoke to 3 people. First was a bit behavioral and we discussed the position. I was given an article and asked how i would revise it. Second interview was the technical interview, and the question was difficult and I did poorly (Write a function that outputs the prime factors of a number that also multiply to that number. For example, if given 20, the function would output 5, 2, 2.) I felt deceived that they would have passed me along so far and flew me out after such easy questions to reject me for that, so I tried not to be too bothered. After that I saw a third person who asked me to take 2 articles and turn it into one concise article. I took up all the time allowed for this but I did finish. I had lunch, went to a demo, and was sent home afterwards without meeting a founder so I knew I didn't get the job. I was emailed the rejection a week later. Everything sounded like a perfect fit - until I was told they were looking for someone with the same level of skill as a developer, only they enjoy producing documentation instead of code. While I am a coder, I know I couldn't land a developer job with a top company like Palantir. Still feel very deceived and that a lot of time was wasted because I was asked nothing of that caliber prior to flying out. All of the other technical writers I spoke to even said that they never really wrote any code on the job.
