“I think I did well, prepapring was the best thing I could do, having notes, listening to podcasts, asking questions, doing mock interviews, practice practice practice”
“The process was rigorous, I had 4 rounds, one with HM, one with the engineering manager and 2 with product managers. However, the format of all rounds followed the typical Amazon LP based format. In two of the interviews, I was also asked for mini case study like questions around how I would take decisions on launches and experimentation. ”
“The process was simple but slow, friendly environment, supportive panel. I got stuck during resume follow-ups ”
“Similar to SWE Internship recruiting, just easier LC and addition of SQL questions. Actually had 3 rounds, not 2. ”
“I was not interested to proceed with futher interview rounds since I got promoted in my current role”
“The process was fairly straightforward, although the company at the time was very focused on hiring people with the right values. They had a specific "credos" round, with a long-time employee who's focused on making sure you exhibit their top values/credos. The take-home case study was relatively straightforward for someone with an analytical/finance background.”
“This was one of the hardest loops I had completed. The hiring manager screen and behavioral interviews were standard. The system design interview for a TPM was challenging. The expectations for a TPM included a great deal of technical depth. ”
“Long process with multiple rounds. Recruiter was very efficient and helped with expectations for each round. ”
“Technical questions move fast, dont trip on edge cases. 2 questions in 60 min slot, with multiple followups. Code quickly. With 10 min of intro and questions theres not much time.”

“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.”
