I went through a four-round interview process that lasted about a month and took around 4.5 hours in total.
Round 1:
15-minute HR screening. Basic background and role overview.
Round 2:
Case-style interview. Focused on SQL, problem solving, and how I think through scenarios. Included questions on LLMs and GenAI concepts.
Round 3:
Interview with the Head of the Palantir Practice. Mostly behavioral and hypothetical questions. Focused on communication and overall fit.
Round 4:
Final round with a partner. Discussed my understanding of the company, my interests, and the type of role I was looking for.
After completing all four rounds, I was told they would share a decision by the end of the week. I followed up twice after that timeline passed.
Eventually, I was informed that the position had been closed.
This experience felt frustrating given the time and effort invested. I expected clearer communication and a more timely update after completing the full process.
