I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Citadel in July 2024
Interview
Online Hackerrank interview. It was 108 minutes, 3 leetcode questions. (2 Medium/Hard, 1 Easy). The questions were aligned decreasing difficulty level, so I spent most of the time on the first question and finished the other two in 20 minutes.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The interview is still on going. It was standard LC questions that you can find in the questions list.
Online assessment with 3 coding questions on bfs and stacks etc.
First round on a simple coding question with some basic CS questions on top of it and also asked many CV questions and motivations
Did not proceed after this round
OA then phone interview, discussed about experience, coding rounds, and some open ended questions afterwards. The last 5 - 10 mins was for interviewee to ask questions back. Didn't pass this round :(
I had an HR screen where they asked about my experience at my previous company and to prepare for C++ to talk with the hiring manager. They asked about why I got laid off at my previous company.
