I applied online. I interviewed at Datadog (New York, NY) in Oct 2025
Interview
Great interview process. Was reached out to after a career fair and applied. Had 1-1 behavioral, where the recruiter gave me specific feedback for the next round. Technical round was pretty chill, but I was nervous and got caught up on the last programming question. Tech round: 15 min in-depth about a project of yours, then 40 minutes for 2 programming questions, over video call. Medium leetcodes.
It was good I thought the recruiters were very kind and the technical questions were hard but fair and your run of the mill behaviorals about the company culture. The online assessment was a hacker rank.
