I applied online. I interviewed at Databricks in Oct 2020
Interview
- CodeSignal online assessment, which I got a score of 843 on.
- Karat interview, which is an outsourced LeetCode style interview. I'm usually not the biggest fan of outsourced interviews because they don't help us learn about the company culture.
- Standard LC phone screen with engineer. Got a chance to talk about past projects/interests/ask questions about Databricks
- Behavioral interview with Manager/Director. This was mainly about past projects and technical implementation details. Also, another chance to ask talk the company.
I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Databricks in Sept 2025

I applied online. I interviewed at Databricks (Mountain View, CA) in Sept 2025
Interview
Two technical Questions --> One Algorithms and one Technical Question. Two back to back interviews one hour each. Small behavioral section and technical as well. Walk through your solution for each with follow ups as well.
I had a phone screen and two sets of technical interviews afterwards. Each interview had one question, and they were about medium/hard-level data structures and algorithm questions that require an implementation and complexity analysis.
