I applied online. I interviewed at TuSimple (San Diego, CA) in Jan 2021
Interview
The interview process is pretty standard for full-stack SDE roles. 1 OA with medium questions, then 2 round phone interviews, and 1 final on-site with 4 employee from the potential hiring team.
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. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at TuSimple in Nov 2023
Interview
Take one online coding interview first.
If you pass, then 2 interviews talking about resumes and more coding. And one more resume interview talking with the manager.
Coding tasks are leetcode medium level.

Asking questions related to your experience written in resume
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
