“Professional but the HM round is so pushy. I dont think my background is the candidate that HM is looking for, so I am confused that why they interviewed me ”
“i think they were clear about the process. It was very straight forward in the beginning, but they switched around the order or behavioral and case study. because of that, i felt unprepared.”
“The process is very technical, they care a lot about computer science fundamentals eg. how a dict works and how to deal with collisions. I wasn't prepared for these kind of questions so didn't answer as precisely as I could have. ”
“All the rounds went well except the final one, where I got stuck at a point which was implementing the percentage rollout feature and went blank, interview went downhill after that.”
“The overall interview was over in a week. I think they were looking to quickly to finish the round. It's for Missionforce. The feedback came in positive but for some reasons unknown and not shared they didn't went ahead with me. ”
“Wandered around of all DSA algorithms to come up with solution. Finally could land with BFS approach at the end with that couldn't complete the code and test. ”
“I had a good recruiter round. In the second product case round with HM, they asked me deep technical questions on AI”
“The process was well-structured — it started with a recruiter screen, followed by a technical phone interview, and then a virtual onsite with 4–5 rounds covering coding, system design, and behavioral questions. What went well was that the interviewers were communicative and the scheduling was smooth. What didn't go well was that the system design round felt rushed — there wasn't much time to go deep into trade-offs before moving to the next topic. Feedback after each round was limited, which made it hard to gauge where I stood.”

“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.”
