No OA, straight to technical interviews. Both were standard LC questions with a current engineer. Had to explain thought processes and was stressful if one test case didn't pass. Last round was a behavioral / resume grill with a senior employee or manager.
I applied online. I interviewed at Databricks in Sept 2020
Interview
First coding challenge then pre interview call. The coding challenge is on Code Signal. The pre interview call is a quick 20 minute call where you discuss why you want to work there and what your interests are. Then if you pass you get a Karat interview followed by a technical and a final behavioral.
Interviewer was busy working on his own stuff, expectation wasn’t expressed at all. Interviewer was not engaged at all. Feels like he just doesn’t want me to pass. And he didn’t let me express my thoughts because he wanted to focus on his work.
Very simple. After you apply online, you have a short recruiter call before the standard DSA technicals with engineers. Varies in length and intensity. After that there's one more behavioral interview.
