I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Pinterest (Houston, TX) in Sep 2022
Interview
Starts off with a CodeSignal coding assessment. 4 questions total, aim to get a score of 800 or higher. Algorithms are super important. I got a score of 710 (meaning I fully answered 3 of the questions our of 4) and it wasn't enough. After this, I'm not sure what the interview process looks like. I believe there was going to be a second technical interview round.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
CodeSignal offers 4 types of coding questions. The most important one has to do with algorithms.
Recruiter call, tech round, onsite and rejection call. They sent me an email about a week after the last onsite and asked me to schedule a call on the same day. I scheduled a call to listen 30 second long rejection notice. A half of interview rounds were horrible. Interviewers were not prepared and arrogant.
1st round technical phone screening with in 1 hour.
One follow up question was asked.
The problem was not too hard, but it requires you finish really fast without bugs.

Question 1
Leetcode 1564. Put Boxes Into the Warehouse I.
Follow up: what is maximum total box sizes.
Good experience not the best outcome. Was 1000% sure I completed all coding and sys design but was told didn't get enough signal for the competency round. Overall very organized but not very satisfied with the response.
