Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto 4 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Samsara nel mese di apr 2023
Colloquio
I went through the typical recruiter phone screen, followed by a technical phone screen. The recruiter, along with the interview prep materials, clearly stated that the technical screen would involve a real-world problem directly related to the job, rather than a Leetcode-type question. However, during the technical phone screen, I was presented with a Leetcode problem instead. The interviewer explicitly mentioned that this problem had no relevance to the actual work at Samsara. After about 4 days, I received the news that I passed the tech screen, but the job had been filled. The recruiter then identified two other positions that I was qualified for. However, after several exchanges with the recruiters, one of the jobs was no longer accepting applicants, and they asked me to restart the entire interview process for the other job.
Domande di colloquio [1]
Domanda 1
Challenge involved multiple text formatting and conversion
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.
