I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at DoorDash in Mar 2024
Interview
I applied through employee referral. One 1hr tech screen, and one virtual onsite with two 1hr technical coding rounds and a 30min values interview with a break before the values interview. The interviewers were ok, but the recruiter was really great. She was really quick and efficient, especially when I said I needed to expedite the process due to a separate offer deadline.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Two LC easy/medium questions, one LC hard dp problem
Walking into the coding interview, I was taken aback when they asked about finding the K nearest restaurants based on coordinates. Just days before, I had stumbled on a mock on prachub.com that mirrored this question almost exactly. The interview felt straightforward, but I struggled with some behavioral questions. Overall, the experience was underwhelming; I expected more technical depth. After several rounds, they decided to go in another direction, which was disappointing given my prep efforts.

it was very easy, they ask basic programming questions, can be solved with minimal prep, however they ask a lot about why u want to work here, be prepared to talk for a long time
1) Coding Challenge
2) Technical coding round
