I applied online. I interviewed at OpenAI (Atlanta, GA) in Jan 2026
Interview
The interview question was a standard DSA Leetcode Question but with 8 parts that each build in difficulty. You must be fast and try minimizing mistakes as much as possible to complete as many as you can within 60 minutes.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about your past internship experience and what the most challenging part of it was.
The online assessment consisted of 2 very hard questions over two hours. Not sure how either one was supposed to be solved. Plugged them into AI afterwards and it was unable to find a solution either.
