Process
Applied online.
Shortly after, I received a HackerRank challenge.
A month after that, I heard back.
I had a 45-minute technical phone interview (where we spent some time explaining Palantir and learning about me).
Invited to on-sites.
Very nice, but the company felt very secretive. I always had someone watching over me.
