I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Goldman Sachs in May 2026
Interview
1st round: Leetcode interview with 1 member of the team.
2nd round: Panel interview with 2 of team members,
For the 1st round, managed to discuss with the problem with the interviewer and interviewer was quite helpful with providing hints and possible workarounds. Eventually solved the problem.
For the 2nd round, interviewers were snobbish and rude. Often asking questions in a condescending "I know it better than you" tone. If you were looking to hire an experienced candidate then say so in your job description.
