J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 2 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Samsara en oct. 2019
Entretien
Had a chat with a non technical recruiter then moved to the coderpad interview. Didn't get past the coderpad interview as I'm not sure what specifics they look for when solving. Both the recruiter and interviewer seemed to be decent people.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Given a string, write a function to convert it to HTML (markdown).
A string like :
'This is a paragraph.
-this is
- a block quote
This is another paragraph with a BOLD word.'
Solution would be :
<p>This is a paragraph.</p>
<blockquote>this is </br> a block quote </blockquote>
<p>This is another paragraph with a <strong>BOLD</strong> word. </p>
J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. Le processus a pris 2 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Samsara (Atlanta, GA) en juil. 2019
Entretien
Phone-screening
1 coding problem having to do with pallets and trailers
About 45 minutes
Onsite
2 leetcode-esque coding questions branded for the company
1 design interview question asking to solve a recently-faced problem
About 4 hours
In each interview, completion of all questions is very valued (it appears). At the end, performance improvements and alternatives are discussed.
Also, you may want to opt for their in-house laptops. Internet was a bit flaky for me.
