I applied through university. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Samsara (San Francisco, CA) in Feb 2025
Interview
(Intern process)
OA on coderpad (which has seperate timings for each question) -> Phone with recruiter, without any hardball questions -> Technical Screen -> HM Round
The recruiters were pretty responsive, and gave good feedback throughout the process
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Technical round involved a string parsing type question. The goal was not to make the most optimal solution, but just get it correct. If you were able to make a program with matching output, you might get a few follow ups, but that's just to pad time.

it's a coding interview. First asked some technical questions regarding your resume, then did a coding problem. Last for about an hour. You need to solve the problem step by step.
i did a phone screen with samsara and the first round was a phone screen. I have not heard back from them yet. There will still be multiple technical rounds
