      Forward Deployed Engineer Interview

      16 Aug 2019
      Anonymous employee
      Paris
      Accepted offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      The process took 4 months. I interviewed at C3 AI (Paris) in Feb 2019

      Interview

      Got contacted by a head hunter who found my profile would match with C3.ai. I first had small chat with a delivery manager for about 30mins over BlueJeans. Then I had to through 3 algorithms on Hackerrank in 60 mins (easy to medium difficulty on leetcode) I was then invited onsite which consisted of 3 + 1 interviews: - Technical interview #1: 2 algorithms in 45 minutes with a FDE (the first one is a warm-up, easy level on leetcode and the second one is medium level on Leetcode) - Technical interview #2: 1 algorithm with a FDE but had to do it in two ways recursively and iteratively (I didn't have the time to do it in the iterative way but I manage to explain to logic) - you should be prepared for dynamic programming questions, it was a medium level on latched - Cultural fit interview: had a pleasant chat with a director about C3.ai, my background, my expectations etc. I was then expected to go onsite again to have a last technical interview (I think that's because they wanted confirmation as I did not ace everything). This one was more of a system design-ish interview, the interviewer wanted to know what is my process of thinking. Then.. be prepared, the last two interviews with 2 VPs (in Redwood City) took forever to be planed (and one had to be rescheduled twice). These ones are about cultural fit, you need to know C3 well and have prepared some questions. Had an offer which was below what I was expecting (due to all the interviews), but overall it is still a competitive package for a FDE role in Paris. Overall everyone at C3 was very nice, talented. They all really are smart people. But to join the team be prepared to face very a very long recruitment process (mine began at the end of February and finished at the beginning of July)

      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at C3 AI (Redwood City, CA)

      Interview

      In the screening interview, the engineer taking the interview was really rude. He started flaming my Uni out of random, indicating that most of the graduates were from "Stanford/Berkeley", then started to flame my experiences. I don't think, I was asked one question which was relevant to my experience or the role.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at C3 AI (Chicago, IL) in Nov 2025

      Interview

      The process was pretty standard. I received a Hackerrank OA followed by a hiring manager round. Another leetcode style and system design round followed by a final behavioural round. All the feedback was positive but after the last round, the manager called me and said they were going in a different direction and said he twasn't allowed to give any feedback.

      Average interview

      Application

      I interviewed at C3 AI

      Interview

      It was long and had many stages. Phone interview then technical then behavioral again at the end. Know both design and algorithmic problem solving. Overall felt decently challenged but still possible.
