I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Pinterest (New York, NY) in Jan 2022
Interview
1- OA
2- Phone screen (1 round)
3- Onsite (4 rounds)
Phone screen was basic technical questions, LC easy-medium.
Onsite was all technical rounds, LC medium. I had a bad experience in the final round interviews, every interviewer was very disconnected and didn't speak much or at all, you technically got no feedback until you finished solving the question which was very different than other interview processes I been with. Felt like they didn't want to be there.

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.
Horrible, el entrevistador ni entendia el ejercicio y queria que lo hiciera a su manera. Tardamos 30 minutos en entender el ejercicio porque el ni lo entendia. Pude hacerlo a mi entendimiento, entonces cada cosa que hacia no me cuestionaba, literal me decia que estaba incorrecto
The interview process was well-structured and included an initial recruiter screen, followed by technical rounds focused on data structures, problem-solving, and system design fundamentals. Interviewers were professional and communicative throughout. Although I wasn’t selected for the role, the experience was positive and provided helpful insight into areas for further growth.
