Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Datadog (San Jose, CA) nel mese di apr 2026
Colloquio
Presentation based on a prompt that was clearly written by AI. Redundant. Interviewers were somewhat combative and asked the same questions over and over even though I clearly answered the question confidently and succinctly. Bizarre. Clearly, the interviewers had no idea how to interview for this position. What a waste of time.

Colloquio
HR was 10mins late for a 30min screening call, and scheduled a 10pm Friday night interview for the next day. Following the hiring manager round, I didn’t hear back until well into the second week, after I followed up for updates. What I received was an automated rejection email from a noreply email, which said everything one needs to know.

Tell me about a campaign that was not successful and how you recovered from it
There were 5 rounds of interview. Recruiter screening call > VP > Hiring Manager > Director > Assignment > Panel discussion.
The interview process at Datadog was positive overall, but the 3-month timeline felt unnecessarily long. More streamlined scheduling or updates along the way would improve the candidate experience. Otherwise, I appreciated the experience
