Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto una settimana. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Samsara (Londra, Inghilterra) nel mese di lug 2025
Colloquio
I applied online and a recruiter reached out after about 1 week to set up a call. In the call with the recruiter I was asked about my experience and was presented the company and the role. I was then scheduled for a Live Coding Interview. I thought I did ok but maybe there were more phases to it, because I was then told I was not successful. The response to my interview came after a couple of days. The interview was not algorithms, it was to implement a specific task.
After this stage there would have been another live coding interview, a hiring manager interview and I believe also a system design. The recruiter presented the entire process in the beginning.
The process moved fast for me, but I only went through the beginning part.
Domande di colloquio [1]
Domanda 1
live coding: implement a specific task in a programing language of choice.
First a HR call - goes into project details, what you're looking for, etc
Got connected to a Hiring Manager for a project deep dive + TPS round within the hour. TPS question not too difficult - not leetcode.

Colloquio
live coding session, create a md to html translator. It was all live with unique requirements making it more difficult than I expected using regex. The interviewer was not personable and it was a very uncomfortable experience
I made it to the technical screen and didn't proceed further. Recruiter call was the usual experience dive, comp discussion, and why you are looking for a job. The technical screen was a string parsing question.
