Very smooth interview process that included multiple rounds of coding interviews + subject mater interviews. Schrodinger sent out a gift basket for participating in the process which was a nice touch.

Question 1
I was asked to build a string parser in python to represent molecules
I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Schrödinger (New York, NY) in Jul 2021
Interview
One technical screen to solve a coding problem, followed by a one-on-one technical interview about a week later. Full day virtual on-site another few weeks after that. This included a mix of some live coding problems, some question and answer stuff, and a social hour. They sent a lovely gift basket to enjoy during the social hour. Great interview process, and the "onsite" was really fun and low stress.
