“I was able to structure the question on how to pitch the product to clients. I told them that I would create separate pitches for CFO, CMO, CEO and map all the benefits in terms of P&L. ”
“The process was more rigorous than expected. It was not just about application - but about WHY for a particular approach”
“Well structured and highly professional, consisting of a phone screen followed by deep dives with senior leadership team and cross functional stakeholders”
“Pretty good. Interviewer is friendly and the problem is medium difficulty. It's a great experience to visit google campus. ”
“The process is straight forward. Getting interviews as an external candidate is difficult. The interviewers are very friendly and accommodating. ”
“This was easy on the technical aspect, if you have relevant experience then it should be really easy. Process was quick but they too much time rolling out the offer.”
“Standard interview process for the most part, however the Sr. Director hiring round was fast paced, very specific, and required executive decision making at speed.”
“Recruiter call was quite okay. It was just basic level of asking if I had certain experiences, very surface level of asking, then just preparing me for what the rounds are. Followed up with an email with a list of interview topics that may be tested. Subsequently, I had interview in the technical phone interview round. I managed to answer ~50% of the theoretical questions, but the remaining 50% were very hands-on and experienced based which I did not have enough of, like specific commands to run and troubleshoot when things gone wrong. Interviewer did not ask me to self-intro, nor ask about any of my expereinces at all. We just dove right in to the questions. Out of the 5 topics that were asked of me to prepare, only dove deep into 1 - Linux.”
“Poorly organized and no clarity from the hiring manager or the recruiter. I felt rushed and was not comfortable talking to someone who interrupts mid-sentence with their half-baked comments about the supply chain. ”

“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.”
