I applied online. I interviewed at Pinterest in Mar 2022
Interview
Worst interview ever! Interviewer came with a question about boto library and when I asked him questions to clarifying the input. He kept getting into argument and he couldn't clarify his own question. I think Pinterest should seriously consider training there candidate.
Thanks so much for interviewing at Pinterest, and for sharing this review. We are so sorry you had a negative experience during our interview process. If you have any additional feedback to add, please reach out at gd@pinterest.com.

Recruiter call, tech round, onsite and rejection call. They sent me an email about a week after the last onsite and asked me to schedule a call on the same day. I scheduled a call to listen 30 second long rejection notice. A half of interview rounds were horrible. Interviewers were not prepared and arrogant.
1st round technical phone screening with in 1 hour.
One follow up question was asked.
The problem was not too hard, but it requires you finish really fast without bugs.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Leetcode 1564. Put Boxes Into the Warehouse I.
Follow up: what is maximum total box sizes.
Good experience not the best outcome. Was 1000% sure I completed all coding and sys design but was told didn't get enough signal for the competency round. Overall very organized but not very satisfied with the response.
