I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Databricks
Interview
Got contacted by recruiter about a role in Amsterdam, spoke with some managers who seemed okay (albeit not very technical).
Then there was the first online coding interview - and oh boy, what an experience it was. Interviewer didn't seem to be interested at all in my solution, turned off his camera right after I started coding and wasn't very communicative.

Application
I interviewed at Databricks (Amsterdam)
Interview
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
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why Databricks?
Past experience.
Projects you have worked on
didn't make it past the first technical round. questions are decently challenging (ie: leetcode med/hard level difficulty), and can range from very mathy topics to bit manipulation, to dynamic programming. be prepared for all scenarios and all topics on leetcode.
