I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Palantir Technologies
Interview
Firstly Hackerrank challenges, 2 problems, not very difficult, usual stuff.
Phone interview with a FDE, not easy to get in touch with the engineer, since he was traveling a lot and kept rescheduling the interview.
Onsite interviews consisting in 3 interviews with 3 FDE. Be sure to revise all the fundamentals of algorithms, coding and design techniques.
Everyone looked quite stressed and not really enthusiast.
I think they are looking for the perfect candidate, 1 single answer which is not the perfect one for them and you are done. That's the impression I had. As usual they rejected me without any feedback.

Given a pointer to an element in a singly linked-list, how can you delete the element from the list?
Given a set of events and a set of time ranges. How can I find in how many time ranges a single event is in? Events are expressed as single points in time(single timestamp), time ranges are expressed as starting point and end point.
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.
Interview questions [1]
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.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Palantir Technologies (New York, NY)
Interview
The process was straightforward and focused on both engineering fundamentals and communication in an ambiguous, customer-facing forward-deployed role. It included an initial screen, technical/coding-style evaluation, and behavioral discussions around ownership, problem solving, and working directly with users or clients.
