January 14, 2026
Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

For interns, it is 2 technical interviews that can be scheduled back to back, 45 minutes each. They ask 1-2 Leetcode-style coding questions per interview. If one interview goes really well but the other poorly, then a 3rd interview is granted.

Questions

They asked me two questions total, each of which were 1 sentence long, so I had to be the one to ask and get a clearer understanding of what they were looking for.
