I had previously talked to cruise, so they went straight to a first round tech interview. Recruiter was very detailed about it being an ML interview specifically covering neural networks (oddly specific) and not the standard algo interview. Interview was... an algo interview, of course.
Domande di colloquio [1]
Domanda 1
Design a robot system to clean a room. Basically write down basic algorithms for exploring a room, talk about potential traps, and try to iterate.
Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Cruise (San Francisco, CA)
Colloquio
The process was smooth, 6 rounds of process. Behavioral, debugging, coding, hiring manager, system design, process was fast, different teams interviewing you, difficult questions, however people were nice. 3 different offices located in sf and sunnyvale
They did a brief discussion about my experience and resume and asked a hard leetcode problem. The problem was solved almost optimally, but some issues with edge cases, however they pushed for a wierd implementation to solve it. Ended up cancelling the job posting cause someone acccepted it jsut 2 days after. Why interview then??

Colloquio
Applied online with my resume, heard back af ew weeks later. Then I received an invite for an initial 45-minute technical screen. A day later, I passed the interview and after that, I moved on to the final round of interviews which consisted of 45-minute technical and 45-minute behavioural.
