Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Leetcode medium - hard level for coding rounds. I would also suggest prepare for element Software engineer questions, especially the ones listed on the resume. No prior automobile knowledge required.
1 HR phone call. In the phone call, you will be asked your interest. I didn’t receive any further response even I already followed up. So I think I didn’t be considered to move on to the next process

I applied through college or university. I interviewed at TuSimple
Interview
Absolutely horrible communication. I emailed to reschedule well in advance of the requested 24 hour window and had to follow up 3 times in order to get a response. When finally starting the interview, the interviewer informs me that I must be implementing my solution in C++ because its "company policy" (even though in the email I was told I can use any language I want). When I proceeded to tell him this, I was met with a blunt "well I don't know this language". Interviewer did a horrible job explaining the prompt and explaining himself when I would ask for clarifications. Honestly a waste of time
