Tediuos but good. You get to learn a couple of things. It was slow and long but challenging. Every interviewee were really good and asked good questions. They were also kind to help.
Application
I applied online. I interviewed at Palantir Technologies
Interview
Still interviewing — completed a 2-hour take-home interaction design challenge with detailed prompt and instructions. Next is a 45-minute portfolio review focused on design skills, interests, and alignment with their work — mostly digging into the 'whys,' values, and systems thinking.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Take-home: Please show your interaction design skills and point out all the key interactions.
Portfolio: We want to see how your design skills and interests align with the work we do.
I was asked to select a time that works for me. It was a 45 min session with 2 product designers, however I wasn't told how to prepare for the interview or what they are looking for.
