I had my first HR interview with DraftKings. It was mainly about getting to know the company, understanding the general role, talking about my past experience, and answering few easy initial technical questions.

I applied online. I interviewed at DraftKings (Boston, MA) in Mar 2026
Interview
The interview process was fairly straightforward - after the screening and technical interview they put you in a 3 hour final round with three separate interviews back-to-back, the last one being a chat with the team lead. The recruiter was nice and helpful throughout the process.

The whole process was very friendly.
HR provided comfortable and on-time communication and interview arrangements.
Interviewers were professional, basically, but not all of them would like to help during the interviews.
