I applied online. I interviewed at Lucid Software (Salt Lake City, UT)
Interview
Applied online and got invited to do a 1 hour test, followed by 0.5 hour discussion on what I coded. The adminstrative part of setting it up was pretty smooth. I felt like the interviewer was pretty new to the interview or doesn't intimately know the exercise that was given to me.

Question 1
Won't give away the problem, but I felt like it was kind of a mess. The email mentioned that it would be a problem solving exercise, so you should solve a few LCs/HRs to prepare. Valid tip, but the exercise was pretty far from doing a problem that you usually would with a tech company. I expected a collaborative session of me going through a problem and having the interviewer provide feedback in real. Instead, it really consisted of them copy and pasting a few problems and telling me they'd check up on me in a bit. My interviewer was also sharing their screen and I while working on my problem, their screen was still sharing so I could see them working on stuff. Kind of awkward TBH. I can't say the problems weren't fair, but I think it can be better executed. The length in which it requires to solve all their problems is in 1 hour, followed by the 0.5 hour discussion, really leaves no time to get comfortable and solve the actual problems fully.

Interview
They have an intensive interview process with multiple steps, the first one being a remote LeetCode-style interview, followed by a more holistic interview with an actual person. I think there are more steps after this, but that is as far as I got. :/
After applying, you get an OA. If you pass the OA, you move forward to the first round, which consists of 2 very easy questions and implementing some logic for a game (important for your code to be *functioning* here). This round is about ~1.75 hours.
The next round is the final round, which is two back-to-back 1 hour interviews. The first part consists of DSA (2 lc meds/hard). The second round consists of behavioral+class design. The class design implementation gets hard each time.
Overall, expect to dedicate ~5 hours for everything. Seems ridiculous given the pay and the prestige of the company.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Lucid Software in Oct 2025
Interview
3 Parts, one OA, One 1.5 hour logic implementation with code, then 2 hour pseudo code and class modeling interview. The second part was with 2 different teams, one of which had a senior engineer and asked behavioral and technical questions. Most questions are pretty simple algorithm implementations, such as BFS or DFS.

Question 1
Asked to make an algorithm for a graphing problem or implement some logic for a couple games.
