J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 2 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Waymo en nov. 2024
Entretien
Was interviewing for L4 grade, got a real-world problem which required data processing using some basic graph algorithms. Unfortunately, I didn't implement the solution in time, so the interview process stopped for me there.

Question 1
Is it better to execute the solution on the frontend or on the backend side? Why?

Entretien
Totally a mess. Attended a recruiter screen call and received the invitation the same day. But the next round with the hiring manager was scheduled for two weeks later (although I tried to schedule it ASAP)! The hiring manager delayed the interview by one day without any clear reason, but the recruiter insisted that there were 2 headcounts available. Even the rejection was delayed to the following week.

Entretien
Started with recruiter call. First round is a programming interview mainly focused on dynamic programming. solved the question but still got rejected. I interviewed for simulation team - scenario creation.
The interview is back to back 2 rounds, including general coding questions and ML related questions. The interviewers are nice and will give enough time to prepare. Follow their guidance is important.
