I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Forward
Interview
It was the worst interview I've had so far. The questions were basic behavioral questions, but the interviewer was extremely disrespectful. She kept yawning repeatedly, showing no interest in what I was saying. I don't understand why she was conducting the interview in the first place. I felt extremely uncomfortable and stressed because of that.
Great! Focused system design + average leetcode questions. Behavioral interview was very nice and straightforward. Systems design interview include building a scribe tool for doctors to use. Was more a paired session with the interviewer.
It was pretty normal as far as interviews in tech go for entry level engineers. It felt like they were spending more time selling me on their product than on questioning me. Some standard Leetcode style question.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Something about the minimum travel distance on a keyboard grid.
Medium difficulty. Interviewed before the company abruptly shut down. Like the team, did not get many specifics about the business, particularly regarding the care pods. It was a few phone screens and then onsite.
