J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. Le processus a pris 2 mois. J'ai passé un entretien chez Samsara (Londres, Angleterre) en nov. 2019
Entretien
There was a recruiter screen, two 45-minute technical phone screens (the second because they wanted to get a second opinion), and a 5-hour onsite with a product demo, 3 technical portions (systems design, debugging, and coding problem), lunch (with one person that you are meant to ask questions about the job and company), and an interview with the engineering manager.
I was a bit confused not to receive the offer as I completed all the coding problems with time left over, although I did get stuck once or twice for a few extra minutes but did eventually figure it out without help. They also left a LOT of time for questions - all in all I think over two hours of my interview process I was expected to be asking questions, and it was a bit stressful to keep having to come up with questions once all the ones I actually had had been answered. There was also no culture-fit portion, which I thought was odd, but everyone was really nice and overall gave a great impression of the team and office.
write a Valuable class with weight and name and then a SafetyDepositBox class with a capacity that can pass Valuable objects and handle capacity according to the Valuables' properties
First a HR call - goes into project details, what you're looking for, etc
Got connected to a Hiring Manager for a project deep dive + TPS round within the hour. TPS question not too difficult - not leetcode.

Entretien
live coding session, create a md to html translator. It was all live with unique requirements making it more difficult than I expected using regex. The interviewer was not personable and it was a very uncomfortable experience
I made it to the technical screen and didn't proceed further. Recruiter call was the usual experience dive, comp discussion, and why you are looking for a job. The technical screen was a string parsing question.
