J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 1 semaine. J'ai passé un entretien chez Pinterest (San Francisco, CA) en sept. 2013
Entretien
The whole process took about two weeks.
1. Apply online
2. Recruiter call you for 45min - ask you about your experience and what you want to do. She will check with hiring manager to see if there is a match. All companies does this step. However, I think its waste of time. They should start with Tech phone screening.
3. Tech phone screen ~1hr. (First 45min talking about your experience, last 15min for coding)
4. onsite interview (coding only)
Questions d'entretien [2]
Question 1
Given an input string and a dictionary of words, find out if the input string can be segmented into a space-separated sequence of dictionary words. You need to output the minimum number of words.
For example,
input: "aaaisaname"
dict: ("a", "aaa", "is", "name")
output: "aaa is a name"
Wrong output: "a a a is a name"
Print a N x M matrix in diagonal from the upper left to lower right. However, with the following caveat. It's easy to just show the input and expect output.
matrix:
a b c
d e f g
h i j k
output:
aej
bfk
cg
di
h

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.
