Candidatei-me online. O processo levou 1 semana. Fui entrevistado pela Airbnb em out. de 2024
Entrevista
Only had the first tech screening round of 45 mins where the interviewer directly asked a Leetcode hard problem. The interviewer was not interested in helping or giving hints.
I somehow managed to solve the problem for some test cases which interviewer had with him and all passed.
It seems that interviewer didn't solve the problem himself, he just knew the solution and wanted the correct answer. He took 10 mins extra where he worked on identifying a test case that fails.
Overall, given the length of interview (45 mins), leetcode hard can only be solved if you have previously solved the same problem and remember each step of it. Otherwise, devising a solution there without hints is difficult.

Entrevista
Entrevista muito curta, prevista pra 15min mas acho que nem chegou a isso. Poucas perguntas e pouco espaço para o candidato falar sobre a sua experiência, nem a câmera a recrutadora ligou
1. HR screen
The HR asked about my experience and mentioned that their coding question is very difficult. So, we scheduled the first technical interview for two weeks later.
2. 1st technical interview
Just the coding question, no more self-intro and project dive.

Entrevista
Got an email from a recruiter 3 months after applying. 45 min coding assessment was the next round. You have to be flawless to pass this stage. I figured out the hardest part of the problem by myself but needed a hint for the other part. Wrote up the entire thing and didn't pass it. So unnatural.
