normal for me

Is this year's oa similar to last year one?
oa was literally LC easy for me
like not even trying to flex, i found the problems on LC easy
brisk fractal
Is it 105 min 3 questions?
scarlet silo
yes
brisk fractal
Alright
Last year it was 3 questions but basically the same graph problem that gets harder
2 lc easy 1 med
scarlet silo
how can a graph question be lc easy
fierce ravine
first was parsing and the second like topo sort bullshit
i applied last night so i didnt get oa yet but i hope it really is lc easies
sullen pier
How was q3?
scarlet silo
How was q3?
harder but its cause i thought it was a dp hard
i legit misunderstood it
sullen pier
But it was an lc easy?
scarlet silo
yes after i realized it wasn't a dp question
i found it on leetcode marked as an easy question lol
or at least, v similar q
sullen pier
Also do yk what the process is this yr bc I heard the steps aren't the same as last
sullen pier
U went from oa -> phone?
scarlet silo
yes
sullen pier
No karat?
scarlet silo
no karat
sullen pier
ahh kk
scarlet silo
phone is behavioral
sullen pier
ty
I'm supposed to be getting an email soon but haven't gotten anything yet
Would u advise studying anything specific for the oa? Would NC 150 normal graphs section be enough
Like we don't have ti knkw union find right 💀
scarlet silo
given that i had LC easies, nothing to really study for
though i know others who got medium
brisk fractal
No karat this is huge
So ig oa - phone - 2 x 1h interview - final with hiring manaher
scarlet silo
So ig oa - phone - 2 x 1h interview - final with hiring manaher
what was process last yr?
sullen pier
oa -> karat -> phone -> 2x 1h -> normally the final w HR is offer
Like if u made it to HR call it normally meant u would get an offer
scarlet silo
what are the 2x 1h
brisk fractal
Like if u made it to HR call it normally meant u would get an offer
No, actually I think 50% of hr interview ended with a no
brisk fractal
what are the 2x 1h
It was either 2 system design or 1 sys 1 leetcode, it wasn't the same for everyone
I think it depended on how you did on karat + oa, if you did good -> 2 sys design
gaunt ivy
No, actually I think 50% of hr interview ended with a no
Yep. It’s also not HR… it’s a HM round and you often get asked technicals as well
scarlet silo
u get asked technicals during the hiring manager round wtff
brisk fractal
Yeah the hm was often leetcode hard 😅
gaunt ivy
Yea based on your weak points during the on-sites
scarlet silo
BROOOOO
brisk fractal
Yeah legit, and you have like 30 min to do it
Because 30 other min goes for complicated behavorial questions
fierce ravine
real
sullen pier
Oh what I didn't know hr round was that bad
no wonder everyone says their bar is insanely high
also my rec said the process is different this yes r
Year
So maybe they also skipped out on other steps, like more than just the karat
brisk fractal
also my rec said the process is different this yes r
did they tell you what they changed? looks like they just removed karat (maybe it was costing them too much money?)
vital nebula
@scarlet silo how long after OA?
scarlet silo
2-3 days
sullen pier
did they tell you what they changed? looks like they just removed karat (maybe i...
Not yet
Still waiting on email
brisk fractal
Do you think it's possible to skip oa if last year I did oa/karat/onsite
pale veldt
Was this for path or normal?
Normal
Didn’t do OA, went through process till final last year
pale veldt
Do you think it's possible to skip oa if last year I did oa/karat/onsite
Yes it is
I reached out to mine cause I made on-site last year
Skip OA straight to phone
brisk fractal
ohh nice, I sent an email to my recruiter
do you know if the rest of the process is the same? phone->learning/decomp->hiring manager?
brisk fractal
k k gl!
pale veldt
Appreciated bro
half talon
Skip OA straight to phone
Did you have to ask to skip?
pale veldt
Nope
pale veldt
Did you have to ask to skip?
Just contacted them
brisk fractal
I sent an email to say that I did the process last year and they skipped me oa
scarlet silo
the pipleine is
phone -> technical (30-45min with palantir engineer) -> viritual onsite -> hiring manager
brisk fractal
so basically same as last year but instead of karat, now it's with a palantir engineer
