I applied online. I interviewed at Zoox in May 2021
Interview
After pre-screening there was an coding interview in C++ which involved system. There was only one question and it was not very difficult. Focused mostly on polymorphism and inheritance. There was a coding trivia for 15 mins about basic C++ questions.
Recruiter call to go over resume and position, tech screen (coding challenge), onsite with four rounds (coding challenge, system design, math and problem solving (MAPS), and one with team manager), leadership call.
interviewed at zoox for software engineer. had their famous brain teaser, a c++ round, 1 domain problem solving and 1 hiring manager. the hiring manager apparently has no interest and was unprofessional. The feedback from him is an unfinished sentence, according to my recruiter. Others are ok.
It was a live coding screening. It lasted an hour. It was a planning problem involving a lane change maneuver given other vehicles on road. There wasn’t much dialogue, just coding.
