Software Engineer Interview Experience

Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

  1. Coderpad - Easy object-oriented coding question with an engineer
  2. 5-session virtual onsite interview

It seems like Zoox mostly asks the same questions of all software candidates, so the majority of the questions are not role-specific and are LeetCode-style questions or riddles.

Overall, my interviewers were courteous and helpful. The interview process favors candidates who are good at LeetCode (but maybe not a good fit for the actual role).

Questions

Do a Google search of Zoox's interview questions. They adhere pretty closely to these questions.

Math section: basic probability, geometry, algebra, riddles.

Multiple easy/medium LeetCode questions in one round. The interviewer will continue asking more questions until time runs out.

An interview with hiring managers consists of whiteboard problems (linear algebra, logic problems).
