I applied online. I interviewed at Datadog (New York, NY) in Oct 2025
Interview
Great interview process. Was reached out to after a career fair and applied. Had 1-1 behavioral, where the recruiter gave me specific feedback for the next round. Technical round was pretty chill, but I was nervous and got caught up on the last programming question. Tech round: 15 min in-depth about a project of yours, then 40 minutes for 2 programming questions, over video call. Medium leetcodes.
first there was the hirevue and OA, then chat with hiring manager for behavioral interview, then technical screen with full time engineer doing leetcode style problem, then got offer decision
It was good I thought the recruiters were very kind and the technical questions were hard but fair and your run of the mill behaviorals about the company culture. The online assessment was a hacker rank.
