Pinterest Onsite expected result?

  1. HLD - 1 : My weakest round because I didn't understand the question completely and missed how union of two incoming queues need to be done where a hint was given to me. However, past that I completed all FR and NFRs and the interviewer at the end said "I learned something new and took care of everything." - This is the round I am most afraid of.

  2. HLD - 2 : Went well, started a small project deep dive which he was impressed by. For the problem, DB choice was a discussion point because there was case for both SQL and NoSQL which I mentioned the trade offs to him which he was convinced by. Rest the interviewer at the end said you covered everything and then we discussed about culture at Pinterest.

  3. Coding - 1 : Solved all parts with 3 minutes left. Interviewer seemed satisfied.

4 coding - 2 : Solved all parts with 10 minutes left and we discussed scope and work of a senior SWE.

  1. competency round: the interviewer said we need someone with your skills since that is in our roadmap.

Role interviewed for : IC15

Yoe : 6.5

Can this lead to an extra round or a down level to IC14?

TC: 0 (laid off)

Laid off. Need referral for Block, Pinterest, Notion, Figma, Robinhood

I got laid off from Netflix. Can someone please help me with a referral for #Block, #Pinterest, #Notion, #Figma or #Robinhood.

I have almost 7 years of experience in very high scale Data infra using Kafka, Flink and Spark.

I already tried Blind, but no luck there.

I recently got laid off. I have ~7 yrs of experience and I am trying to target L5 at the following companies: #Uber, #Doordash, #Coinbase, #Airbnb, #Pinterest, #Reddit, #Roblox, #Robinhood, #Meta, #Stripe, #Apple

Anyone who has interviewed very recently in the last 2-3 months can share their experience would be really helpful. I am mainly looking for answers to:

  1. how hard the coding rounds are
  2. if they are still LC based considering AI usage during interviews
  3. Are there any dedicated AI assisted rounds in any of the companies mentioned above.

Any insight would be really helpful.

Note: It would be especially helpful if you mention the company(ies) you are sharing the interview experience for. I am planning to maintain an excel sheet for this.
