I applied online. I interviewed at Cruise in Jun 2019
Interview
This was a phone interview, the recruiter called me and misunderstood one of my projects as a job experience and was disappointed about that. He later tried to be interested but clearly wasn't, I thought this experience was a waste of my time. I wish the recruiter had spent a few minutes reading through my resume.
The process was smooth, 6 rounds of process. Behavioral, debugging, coding, hiring manager, system design, process was fast, different teams interviewing you, difficult questions, however people were nice. 3 different offices located in sf and sunnyvale
They did a brief discussion about my experience and resume and asked a hard leetcode problem. The problem was solved almost optimally, but some issues with edge cases, however they pushed for a wierd implementation to solve it. Ended up cancelling the job posting cause someone acccepted it jsut 2 days after. Why interview then??
Applied online with my resume, heard back af ew weeks later. Then I received an invite for an initial 45-minute technical screen. A day later, I passed the interview and after that, I moved on to the final round of interviews which consisted of 45-minute technical and 45-minute behavioural.
