I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Palantir Technologies (Canberra)
Interview
Applied through their website and was contacted by their recruiter a few weeks later asking me to do the online programming challenge. I underestimated how difficult the challenge would be and didn't finish my solution at all. Fortunately the recruiter reached out to me and I had explained that why I did poorly. After this, a phone interview was organised. The engineer who called me was very friendly and helpful. The day after, I got an email saying they would like me to go for an in-person interview. The interview had some very difficult part but also some reasonable parts and the engineers were pretty nice in that they gave me a few hints for the technical questions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Design a high-level interface to be used for card games (e.g. poker, blackjack etc).
I had behavioral interviews and then 4 in person interviews. The behavioral was straightforward. There was also a data query interview where they taught you a new "language" and had you execute basic queries in it. Then there was a system design interview. I had two of these. The last one they asked me if I was deployed to the moon to identify new species of alien what kind of system would I build.

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Palantir Technologies
Interview
The interview process consisted of an initial recruiter screening followed by a technical interview with an engineer. The technical round focused primarily on LeetCode-style coding questions and problem-solving. The recruiter was responsive and the interview process was straightforward.

Question 1
What is a technical project I have worked on recently.
A recruiter reached out to me and has the initial screening. Then the recruiter reached back to me after 3 weeks. You just have to wait for the recuriter to reach out to you. It could take some time.
