“The process was a part of campus recruiting. The interviewers created a comfortable environment and the rounds were conversational. 30-40% of the interview time was dedicated towards behavioural fit questions.”
“Regular case questions, but took too long. Made final round and then team matching went on for months, until I finally pulled out.”
“Answered effectively, they were looking more for an international experience (Asia) and the job description didn't mention”
“It was good! It was straight forward. Interviewers were very nice and the final round was 3 interviews”
“It was very straightforward and wasn’t too bad, although it depends on the interviewer. For the intern roles, they aren’t expecting as much from the candidate and want to hear your thinking out loud. ”
“The process was pretty straightforward. Interviews were primarily focused on behavioural types of questions and my past work experience. I had a list of STAR stories prepared.”
“The recruiter was great. The process went by quite quickly, and they were quite flexible with the scheduling. Overall, I'd say the interview process itself was not the most difficult, and definitely work through all of the materials that the recruiter shares with you beforehand. ”
“I went through 5 rounds for a Senior PM role: a recruiter screen, a hiring manager call, then three virtual on-sites covering Product Sense, Analytical/Metrics, and Googleyness/Leadership, followed by a cross-functional interview with an engineering partner. The whole process took about 5 weeks from initial outreach to offer. What went well: The recruiter was communicative throughout and gave clear prep guidance before each round, which helped me calibrate expectations. The Product Sense interview felt collaborative — the interviewer built on my ideas rather than just grading me, and I appreciated that the analytical round used a real, de-identified product problem rather than an abstract puzzle. What didn't go well: Scheduling took longer than expected between the hiring manager call and the on-site loop (about 10 days), which created some uncertainty. I also found the case interview time pressure tight — 45 minutes wasn't quite enough to fully structure and solve the prompt, so I'd have appreciated a few extra minutes to synthesize a recommendation at the end.”
“My process started with a talent screen with the recruiter and quickly moved to a hiring manager interview. They then scheduled me for a full loop on a tight timeline as I was far along with another offer. I had 4 interviews in the full loop and after those 4 rounds I was notified by the recruiter that I'd passed and was going for review with a hiring committee, a week later I was told I was going to get the offer. ”

“The weirdest Anthropic round was the company values interview. It was almost like a therapy session, and honestly if you went to a therapist at some point, you will pass that round much more easily.”
“What was very unusual is they didn’t give me any tooling to draw the system design, so I just sketched it on a piece of paper and talked them through it, then we got into this oddly deep debate about whether hover-over history should count as a recommendation signal.”
