Software Engineering Intern Interview Experience
Process
• CodeSignal online assessment, which I scored 843 on. • Karat interview, an outsourced LeetCode-style interview. I'm usually not the biggest fan of outsourced interviews because they don't help us learn about the company culture. • Standard LC phone screen with an engineer. I got a chance to talk about past projects, interests, and ask questions about Databricks. • Behavioral interview with a Manager/Director. This was mainly about past projects and technical implementation details. It was also another chance to talk about the company.
