The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Databricks
Interview
Recruiter call, then phone screen. Phone screen was well. I solved the coding question, tested it and had a follow up discussion about the trade offs.
I got surprised of getting rejection letter an hour after the interview.
I think they aren’t actually hiring, just tasting the candidates. I wish they were more respectful of people time and won’t interview people if they aren’t serious about hiring.

Question 1
Merging arrays, then follow up on related problems.
Recruiter called after I applied online on their site. Great call, met with the hiring Manager next. Now haven't heard back in 2 weeks, ghosted I guess. My professional experience with Databricks is limited. I spent lots of times with free edition, but didn't get to that point where I could show that.
Had an initial recruiter screen for a Software Engineer position. The call lasted around 15 minutes and covered the usual ground: my background and experience, motivation for applying, current role, and salary expectations. The recruiter also gave a clear overview of teams, the product, and the full interview process ahead.
1. Phone interview with HR.
2. Technical coding question using coder pad. Have to implement from scratch.
Interview process was very fast and recruiter was friendly
Question was little vague but it seems to be leaked a lot on the internet
