Interview
HR people asking data structures and algorithms questions. I've participated just because I was curious and I wasn't looking for a new job. But it was very disappointing and unprofessional.
I applied through university. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Fitbit (San Francisco, CA) in Sept 2021
Interview
Lots of questions about how I would design research experiments and analyze them with statistical tests, while thinking on my feet. There were 8 interviews. The recruiter was excellent at guiding through the interview process and setting expectations.
