I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Databricks in Feb 2020
Interview
First i said after 6:30pm, they send me a link for 2:30pm, I had to reschedule my other meetings to accommodate their lack of rigor.
Then the recruiter didn't turn her camera on, which I think was rude, sine mine was.
Third the recruiter started shrouded in mystery about the job, saying they had many openings but asking questions only about programming languages.
I had to say three times that coding was too junior compared to my experience and interrupt twice her list of coding questions before she gave me the "we will keep your CV" line.
A complete waste of my time, obviously a recruitment process that needs improvement and some more senior recruiters.

Other Solution Architect Interview Reviews for Databricks
I applied online and was contacted by a recruiter for an initial call. My background and experience were not aligned with the role, so we did not proceed to the next round.
Unfortunately, the interview experience was not very positive. The recruiter was late to the scheduled call, and the communication style felt somewhat one-sided and pushy rather than collaborative. I would have appreciated a more balanced and respectful conversation.
Multiple rounds of interview , take home assessment was not very tough . But panel presentation round was tough , it seems they want candidate who can wow them even though all rounds went fine .
I go the first phone call which went pretty well. Then I passed a first panel round on simple architecture. Did first round technical round, but never heard back again.
