Experience: Awful.

• The interviewer was 2-3 minutes late for the interview.
• The interviewer was not interested in hearing about my work experience, wanting to jump directly to the coding section.
• Before starting the coding questions, the interviewer stated upfront that there were two problems to solve. The first had to be solved in 10 minutes, and the second in 15 minutes. The code had to be bug-free, and I had to write and run the tests successfully. I took an extra two minutes for the first question, after which the interviewer lost interest in further interaction.
• The interviewer had a condescending tone during the behavioral question round. For example, when I mentioned startup mobility as a reason for wanting to work at Nuro (since my current company has over 100,000 employees), they immediately asked, "Why do you say Nuro has startup mobility? Do you even know how many people we have?" (I was able to answer this as I had done prior research.)

Phone Interview Question: MineSweeper.

Question 1: Given a 2D array with mines (-1) and non-mines (0), count the number of mines around each cell.

Question 2: Write a method to reveal a particular cell given some criteria.

Behavioral Questions:

• Why did you work on two teams in a four-year tenure?
• Why Nuro? Why do you say Nuro has startup mobility? Do you even know how many people we have?
