Software Engineer Interview Experience - Palo Alto, California
Process
I applied through a recruiter. The process took one week.
- Received a phone call from the recruiter.
- Scheduled a phone screen interview.
The technical interviewer asked reasonable questions that a potential candidate was supposed to know for the position. He also asked about my technical skills and some programming questions. After passing the phone interview, I had an onsite which consisted of two technical interviews and one experience/behavioral questions round. The offer came after the onsite.

Navan Work Experiences
- 2.0Don’t join Navan EngineeringSoftware Engineer • Current EmployeePalo Alto, CAJanuary 16, 2025Pros: Decent pay, nice offices, talented co-workers.Cons: Do yourself a favor and filter by engineering and compare us to other companies. We are 3.3. AWS and Tesla are at 3.7 for comparison. Like other reviewers have said management is basically useless. They don’t have basic product management skills and are always focused on short term money grabs.
- 3.0Chaos is what it feels likeSoftware Engineer • Former EmployeePalo Alto, CAApril 24, 2023Pros: - Not sure, nothing stands out really, pretty average tech company. - Good people thoCons: - Constantly changing priorities/processes, which is maybe okay sometimes, but not all the time. Let people finish something. - They will tell how great they are doing and how profits are growing 10x day over day, and then lay you off the next day due to recession :) - Leadership is a bunch of jokers who don’t seem to know anything that’s going on inside the teams - If you are not Jewish, you will definitely notice that.
