Software Engineer Interview Experience - London, United Kingdom
Process
The on-site process was really smooth.
There was an onboarding meeting with other interviewees, where we were introduced to Palantir and some of their technologies.
Afterwards, I was moved to a room and had three interviews back-to-back. Each interview was 45 minutes long, with a 15-minute break before the next one.
It started with a brief talk about my background, followed by a technical question on the whiteboard.
