Very long, I enjoyed it so far but scheduling takes time. I do find that different roles have different remote flexibility. Recruiters in general do prep you for the panel rounds so thats great.

Colloquio
I cold applied online and heard back about a week later. I then had a screener call with a recruiter who super friendly. The call didn’t require any preparation. They asked pretty straight forward questions about my experience.
Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto 3 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Datadog (New York, NY) nel mese di feb 2026
Colloquio
1st round is a recruiter screening. typical questions asked like tell me about yourself, why do you want to work here. 2nd round is a hiring manager round to go into more detail on experience and technical background. there is a discussion about the specific product that you would own. Lastly there is a panel round with 2 behavior and 2 technical interviews with product and engineering leaders.
Straight forward process, last round consists of analytical, engineering collaboration, technical, and case study. I felt that the technical interview was easier than what I’d have thought. Case study interview feels a bit subjective since it had something to do with one of Datadog’s products. Recruitment process as a whole was transparent and I love that they give you feedback at the end.
