Search and Data Mining Engineer Interview Experience - San Francisco, California
Process
Three back-to-back onsite rounds, all technical. The process was very fancy, however, I didn't get the offer. I love this company, but I am too nervous and not strong enough. They asked questions about details in my resume and then had me code on a whiteboard. The trip was fantastic, and I hope I can have an opportunity to work in San Francisco. That's my dream.
Questions
All about problems that they meet during work, combined with real-world application. Not only data structure questions and code.
