I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Pinterest
Interview
A year before graduating a recruiter hit me up about interviewing at Pinterest for an internship. I had already decided to go back to my company but told them I would be interested for a full-time once I got closer to graduation. A year passed and recruiter messaged me about fulltime interview and once I applied they went ahead a sent me a lymus coding challenge. First question was super easy. Improve a coworkers implementation. Second was definitely more challenging. Requiring implementation of an LRU cache.
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.
