Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Indeed (Austin, TX) nel mese di feb 2021
Colloquio
Indeed uses a 3rd party company, Karat, to filter candidates with a coding challenge. This is a 1-hour interview over webcam & shared text editor. 15 minutes are devoted to verbal questions about a few topics, and then 45 minutes of coding in your favorite language.
The coding challenge is the #1 most important thing. Indeed said I needed to successfully complete at least 2 coding problems in the 45 minutes, or that's the end of the application process. Don't worry about the first 15 minute discussion, focus on the coding.
If you want to prepare, my best advice is to go to the leetcode website, click on the "Discuss" forums link at the top, and search for "Indeed" to see what others have been asked. Then *memorize* how to write code to solve those problems.
You won't have much time to debug, and the Karat interviewer also interrupts your coding with questions, "Tell me about your thought process here?" But you really need to focus on typing correct code, because the things you say to the Karat interviewer do not matter as much as getting two working solutions.

Write a function to read in an array of strings, and then output an array of strings that are "fully justified". That means the output strings must have enough spaces between words to make each line equal in length.
Only did the 1st round. It was a medium Leetcode question. The interview was only for 30 min. Their compiler threw an unexpected error, which even the interviewers couldn't fix

Terrible scheduling. Difficult company to deal with. Will not contact again. Pay was below industry average for the location. Misleading job description. Benefits below standard. Hope everyone avoids this place

In total, there were five interviews. Three of them were more technical and the other two or more about your background. The technical interviews were pretty standard simple to medium Leetcode questions.

I was asked about how we kept metrics in my previous job. When I told him that this was something we didn’t really do, he continued to harp on this question for the entirety of the interview, as if it was something that would be very difficult for me to learn.
