J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 1 semaine. J'ai passé un entretien chez Pinterest (San Francisco, CA) en oct. 2018
Entretien
The interview started a bit late. The interviewer appeared distracted from the beginning. He inquired about my current role but did not have any follow up questions regarding any technical projects related to the candidacy. We dove into a technical question which was extremely poorly framed. Additionally, when I inquired regarding the i/o and assumptions it took him 2-3 min each time to come up with an answer and at one point he wasn't even listening. It was a frustrating back and forth experience where more time was spent on the questioning rather than the actual technical problem and the concepts.
Towards the end of the interview, I was given <5m for questions and at the final minute I was told that the room had to be vacated and that the interview needed to finish.

Good experience not the best outcome. Was 1000% sure I completed all coding and sys design but was told didn't get enough signal for the competency round. Overall very organized but not very satisfied with the response.

Horrible, el entrevistador ni entendia el ejercicio y queria que lo hiciera a su manera. Tardamos 30 minutos en entender el ejercicio porque el ni lo entendia. Pude hacerlo a mi entendimiento, entonces cada cosa que hacia no me cuestionaba, literal me decia que estaba incorrecto
The interview process was well-structured and included an initial recruiter screen, followed by technical rounds focused on data structures, problem-solving, and system design fundamentals. Interviewers were professional and communicative throughout. Although I wasn’t selected for the role, the experience was positive and provided helpful insight into areas for further growth.
