Process
The interview process was very standard. It consisted of a phone screen with the recruiter and then an online coding test with an engineer.
The recruiter was very thorough and eager to know more about my background. They were also very knowledgeable about the technology and open about Palantir and the position.
The interviewer straight-up admitted they were doing back-to-back interviews because "it's the season," so it was very impersonal from the start. The denial was also an automated email, which felt disrespectful of my time.
