Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto 2 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Palantir Technologies
Colloquio
Given I got so many helpful tips from Glassdoor when preparing, I thought it is only fair that I give my review and hopefully it will help other candidates.
- Submitted resume via website, received call
- Phone Interview
- On-site
Process took about 2 weeks between phone -> on-site
- They **will** ask programming questions (even if it is a business position as this one was)
- They will ask you to write your programs on the board
- It is not enough to just write the programs, you may (most likely will) be asked to write them with lower complexity and/or without using any non-standard libraries
Overall, my experience was pleasant.

They really want to get to know you throughout the process, and see how you think about data in different ways and how you solve problems. You have to build a product which takes a long time.

Started with a quick review of my recent experiences and behavioral questions, and then jumped into a SQL interview. It was mostly a large code file which had a lot of bugs in it that had to be fixed.

There were 3 stages:
1. Chat with a currently deployment strategist (20 min)
2. Onsite interview: consisted of a 45 minute technical comprehension portion and a 45 minute decomposition portion
3. Interview with hiring manager (30-60 min)
After passing a round, they were very quick to get back to me, usually same day or end of the next business day.
