Me postulé a través de una recomendación de un empleado. El proceso tomó 5 días. Acudí a una entrevista en Qualtrics en may 2015
Entrevista
I recently read that Qualtrics is looking to add 100 engineers to their Seattle operation, and a contact at the company said that they've hired quite a few recent graduates, so I decided to apply. I was put in touch with a recruiter the same day I sent in my resume/cover letter, and we scheduled a non-technical interview that week.
The recruiter and I got along well and had a pleasant conversation, and I was looking forward to scheduling a technical interview to write some code with the engineers. After the non-technical screen, the recruiter sends the resume/cover letter with initial interview notes to the engineering team, who decides whether to move forward or not. I got a call a few days later from the recruiter who regrettably informed me that the engineers didn't want to continue with me.
I appreciated the phone call, and we chatted a bit longer when I asked if he could tell me what I was lacking for the second interview. Apparently it's a big deal for the engineers that everyone had a 3.0 or above in college, so my 2.88 didn't cut it, and even with an internship (and several on-campus part-time jobs to pay for school), I didn't have enough demonstrated experience for them to be comfortable with taking the risk. I would have liked an opportunity for a technical interview, but if a high GPA in college is THAT important to the Qualtrics team, I probably wouldn't have been a fit, anyway.

Entrevista
The whole process was remote. I was referred by a friend who works here.
1. Chat with recruiter
2. Chat with hiring manager (behavioral questions)
3. Coding Question on hacker rank
4. System Design question - interviewer didn't turn on camera, said very little throughout the process
The recruiter told me that they had been slow in making a decision, that they will get back to me. They never got back to me.
Preguntas de entrevista [1]
Pregunta 1
Tell me about a time that you made a mistake. How did you handle it?
Started with a Recruiter screen - overview about company
ML Knowledge - basics of LLMs and your relevant projects
LeetCode - two basic easy and med leetcode problems
Takes a long time to hear back after each round - better to reach out after each round to ask about next steps.
First step is recriuter screen. Then 45 min technical with a software engineer, final round is 90 min technical and 30 min behavioral. They will have you schedule them on a web service called goodtime. Interviewer was very friendly.
