I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Pinterest (Palo Alto, CA) in Oct 2024
Interview
Recieved link to OA (submitted previous score - valid because within 6 months). Within a week, recruiter called me. I wasn't available then, but set up behavorial interview for following day. Around 15 minutes, asking about my background and why I was interested in Pinterest. Following that, recieved link to schedule live technical interview. Two questions in an hour. I solved both but not optimal solutions. Took me awhile to get my solutions working.
