Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite segnalazione di un dipendente. La procedura ha richiesto 2 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Samsara (New York, NY) nel mese di apr 2021
Colloquio
Started off with a technical phone screen. Same question as has been posted here before.
Was passed around through 3 recruiters before being scheduled an onsite. They don't reply to emails. The onsite is 4 rounds - 1 technical, 1 debugging, 1 system design, 1 behavioral. Questions are same as the ones that've been posted here thus far. Engineers were really great and friendly, would've loved to work with them. Really friendly and sharp. Had some awesome conversations.
2 days passed and a 4th recruiter reached out. Said theyd love to have me ...........but don't have space for me right now. Said to wait 2 weeks to 6 months if leadership figures out the budget. Hired too many people in too short a time.
Got the rejection email 2 weeks later. Recruiting team is an abysmal representation of the engineering excellence the company embodies. Applying is a stressful process generally and this recruiting team makes sure to raise your hopes up with false promises so they can drop you harder.
Go into this with no expectations and wait for the full sentence after "We'd love to have you"
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.
