I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at Anduril (Costa Mesa, CA) in Feb 2025
Interview
1 coding, then 2 coding + sys design + behavioral. Leetcode easy questions and read the topmost two entries of your resume to me.
Recruiter (native English speaker) was MIA outside clicking button to send expired link and writing confused, badly written emails.
Response to 'Next week I have good availability Tuesday, Thurs and Fri.':
- Hey {name misspelled},
- Thanks for reaching out. Do you have role you came across? I am personally not working on any active Managerial roles.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The coding questions were in the range of leetcode easy and it doesn't matter at all if you solve them or don't solve them. For software engineers the only interview of the 5 that mattered, per feedback, was the behavioral one. Hiring at Anduril is done on vibes.
behavioral and technicals in a power day. Leetcode problems and had to dive deeper with follow ups and why anduril is a repeated question so be prepared. good luck you got this
One technical leetcode style question for the first round. Following that was three rounds of technical questions, one focused on APIs, one was more conversational and focused on past experience, one was a leetcode style question with follow-ups.
Fast quick process! The team was very smart but unfortunately didn’t get an offer. The company is still growing so will definitely reapply in the future! Hiring manager was nice as well.
