“Overall the interview process was quite quick but also didn't feel very robust as I was expecting for this type of company! I think I failed one of the later technical rounds in the onsite.”
“It was as expected since this was my second time interviewing with them. With practice, the loop is fairly reasonable. Did not pass the behavioral questions before. ”
“The interview was highly rigorous but followed a format: four interviews and then five rounds of on-site. The preparation material provided by the recruiter did really help. It's always better to understand from the recruiter what is expected and then prepare accordingly.”
“It was a pretty standard interview. Didn’t have a single behavioral and everything was based on the technical, didn’t do perfectly, but still got the offer”
“It was as expected. SQL: First define the metrics and then code them Product sense: How do you measure the success of a product/feature type questions with follow-ups Probability and statistics with text book style problems and experimentation based questions ”
“Easier interview, focused on Stats, A/B testing and product sense. First round was technical interview focused on probability and SQL. Final round was on A/B testing, stats, and behavioral questions.”
“Standardized”
“The overall interview process was smooth and well organized. The interviewers were friendly and made me feel comfortable.”
“The process was technically rigorous and focused heavily on ML systems fundamentals rather than generic LeetCode-style interviewing. The conversations went deep into large-scale training, distributed systems, performance bottlenecks, and reasoning about how computation and communication interact across GPUs. I thought the strongest part of the process was that I could connect several questions back to practical GPU and systems work I had done before. The harder parts were questions that required quickly reasoning through unfamiliar distributed-training scenarios and communicating the tradeoffs clearly while working through them.”

“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.”
