      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Workday in Sep 2025

      Interview

      The first round was behavioral, but with a technical member of staff. They said in the email that it would just be a recruiter, but it was a staff swe. They asked me the typical behavioral questions, then started asking me questions about my resume, REST APIs, and how I showed leadership in my last internship.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Explain to me REST APIs, what the acronym stands for, and how you can prompt LLM APIs such as OpenAI to get an output and store it in a database.
