Process
The interview process is generally divided into three parts within the same meeting:
-
The Karat team introduces themselves, the company, and their culture. They aim to make you feel comfortable with the whole process from the beginning. Then they explain the interview process for the next 45 minutes.
-
The candidate then has time to introduce themselves, share their experience, and how they arrived at this point.
-
The next 45 minutes are dedicated to coding interview questions, specifically algorithms.
