I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Databricks (Amsterdam) in Jul 2022
Interview
Applied online through the website and got reached by a recruiter. Went through a filter with the recruiter and then a technical phone screen, then onsite virtual interviews The interviews were rigorous that tested development knowledge. The interviewer is professional and guides you through. Recuirter is really helpful. Follow up on updates quickly. Got the results a few days after the last interview. Unfortunately, got rejected and got some additional feedback. The feedback was informative. Even detailed feedback was not given, got directions on what to improve, and so on... It was for a junior role and the interviews were on essential data structure and algorithms
Recruiter called after I applied online on their site. Great call, met with the hiring Manager next. Now haven't heard back in 2 weeks, ghosted I guess. My professional experience with Databricks is limited. I spent lots of times with free edition, but didn't get to that point where I could show that.
Had an initial recruiter screen for a Software Engineer position. The call lasted around 15 minutes and covered the usual ground: my background and experience, motivation for applying, current role, and salary expectations. The recruiter also gave a clear overview of teams, the product, and the full interview process ahead.
1. Phone interview with HR.
2. Technical coding question using coder pad. Have to implement from scratch.
Interview process was very fast and recruiter was friendly
Question was little vague but it seems to be leaked a lot on the internet
