I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at The Trade Desk
Interview
Straight forward process beginning with an HR/recruiter call, meeting with the department lead, and then meeting with other members within the Department. In the final round they have you do a presentation. Ended up being ghosted midway through the process. Classic disorganized small company move where they don’t have the courtesy to let you know where you stand and not string you along.

Question 1
Mostly behavioral questions such as “Describe a time when you...”
Why the Trade Desk?
phone screen, manager interview, then two more 45 min interviews with colleagues and a in person presentation. it was a lot of behavioral questions and some hypotheticals, especially in person so be ready to answer hard questions on the spot. everyone was very friendly and personable.
Thorough and professional experience. Starts with a standard phone screening with HR to get to know you on the surface. Continues to escalate from there to more in-depth interviews. Very standard, no negative experiences.

Question 1
What experiences led you to look into working with us
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at The Trade Desk (Hong Kong) in Jul 2025
Interview
The interview process is long, 6 rounds for 2 months, and the final round is a case study presentation. The TA is really friendly and helpful, and is willing to share the interviewer's feedback and comments.
All the interviewers are also nice and happy to know more about your experience, so I can feel free to share my learnings and insights about their questions.
The whole interview process and arrangement are smooth.
