I applied online. The process took 8 weeks. I interviewed at The Trade Desk in Aug 2024
Interview
Has the most miserable experience since the recruiter missed almost 4-5 calls with me and was just so bad at communication. Interviews itself were fine. There was a codesignal, followed by a recruiter call and then two hour long final interviews. One was regular DSA around leetcode medium and the other was OOP which they call system design. You have to code in both but in the OOP one your code is never actually run.
Oa was 70 min, 4 questions total. 30 min recruiter screen couple days after passing oa. after that was technical screen, and then superday which was 1 hr lc, 1 hr sys design
1st round hr interview: BQ questions. 30-45 mins.
The interviewer was very nice, warm, polite, and professional. But The interview process was really intense. The interview lasts 30–45 minutes. It primarily consists of behavioral questions based on your resume. the interviewer asked some broad questions, but each one was followed by several follow-up questions.
