      Application

      I applied online. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Anthropic in Apr 2026

      Interview

      Did their online coding round. Not leetcode but more about writing code fast to a spec and refactoring quickly as more constraints are added per stage. I imagine it can be easy or difficult depending on the day.

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Anthropic

      Interview

      After having a very strong match with job requirements I get an automated mail from anthropic. This was for an online coding assessment. There is no specification on what can be expected from this round. I am a really good developer in general who have built highly scalable systems in industry and also can solve medium to hard algo questions bug free in under 20 min. I still tried to practice some questions in the said platform. On that assessment, there was a stage wise coding problem. It expected you to move so fast and not at all pay attention to what was written in the problem statement. You could do it in expected time only if you magically know the problem before this and have solutions memorized. I scored only 50% and it was a bad score. I have heard people scoring full in these tests and they happen to be rigged. Because there is no way you can type those solutions without having had seen those problems again and again. My worst experience with any company. If recruiters are reading this, please do better.
