Had a technical coding question similar to Leetcode and technical presentation with members of the team, very fast and efficient process. Was more like a conversation than an interview. Recruiter was communicative throughout the process.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Rivian (Belgrade, Central Serbia) in Apr 2025
Interview
Interview process consists of three rounds. Each is technical and one is behavioral. Interviewers are the people from the team or people you are going to collaborate closely. Technical tasks are easy / easy-to-medium difficulty.
I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Rivian
Interview
45 min technical & behavioural, asked a hashmap leetcode medium/hard. Asked about previous projects. Super nice and laid back atmosphere. Wasn't able to solve every part of the problem and the interviewer was helpful and ok with that.
