Positive ExperienceNo Offer

Process

I just completed my Karat coding/technical interview. The interviewer was very down-to-earth and approachable, which helped reduce my nervousness.

The interview was scheduled for 60 minutes:

  • 15 minutes for intros, technical background, and 3 trivia questions.
  • The remaining 45 minutes were allotted for 3 coding problems.

What is really unique about Palantir's process is that we can request a 'do-over' within 24 hours of the Karat interview if we felt we didn't do well.

Questions

3 time complexity trivia questions. Anyone pursuing a CS or adjacent degree should know how to do these.

Followed by 3 coding challenges that build on each other. We had to perform time complexity and space complexity on all 3 problems. I was able to complete the problems with 15 minutes remaining on the clock.
