Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 4 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Palantir Technologies (Abu Dhabi, ) en jul 2013
Entrevista
I have applied to the Software Engineer position in the Palantir US. A recruiter contacted me saying that the Visa cap is over, and asked me whether i am interested in FDE position in Abu Dhabi Position. I agreed and proceded for Abu Dhabi FDE interview process.
They had two Telephonic Interview schedule for me.
In the first Telephonic Interview, interviewer called me , asked me to write the complete design of my current project in Amazon. He asked me to write the whole architecture and design in a Stypi link. The Project is very big that it took 30 minutes for me to explain the project. After he asked me a an algorithmic puzzle. Told him various approaches to solve the puzzle. Interview was impressed and said that I have done the interview well. Asked me if i have any other questions.
The First Interviewer recommended me to second telephonic interview.
In the Second telephonic interview, interviewer started with my resume, and asked me why I have not joined IBM after my Masters(have done my internship in IBM India Storage Labs). And asked me why i joned Amazon after masters, and not IBM. He asked why i am interested in Palantir. How I heard about Palantir. Then he went to Technical side where he asked me difference between Java and C++. Asked me about Stack data structure and its applications.
Then he asked me to write the code for implementing a Stack which has operations : push, pop, peek, min (minimum element in the stack). I have coded efficiently. Asked me about complexities. Asked me to improve the code.
I really though that second interview went very well. But there I as wrong. Immediately after two days, I got a mail saying that they could not progress with my application saying that they will talk gain in timeframe of 9 months.
This is really a shock for me. I asked some feedback on my interview process. I got a reply saying that "we don't provide detailed feedback. But as mentioned we would like to revisit your application in a timeframe of 9-12 months.".
End of the story
