Deployment Strategist Interview Palantir
Hi!
I'm in the process of DS at Palantir and feel like my process is a bit different than what I read from others...(not in a bad or good way) A recruiter reached out to me and wanted to schedule a call with a current team member. I asked what I should prepare and they stated it would be an informal conversation. The interview went ok(imo) and there were a lot of probing questions about specific products I mentioned in relation to my previous experience.
My next round is scheduled for 45 min with another team member, but the recruiter hasn't included more information about the interview except saying they want to continue the discussion and recommend me looking through the Palantir website.
Any idea on what they're trying to assess? My motivation only?
If anyone has any similar experiences please lmk !

IK employee here - sharing a free session on 2026 hiring trends
IK employee here, so full transparency before anything else. I helped with this event, but I’m sharing it here because the topic feels relevant for a lot of people preparing for interviews or planning their next career move.
We’re hosting a free live session called Resurge 2026 on May 12th, 6–8 PM PT. The session is focused on what companies may expect from tech candidates in 2026, especially as AI fluency starts becoming a baseline expectation across roles.
The panel includes senior people from Microsoft, Amazon, Instacart, and Expedia. They’ll discuss hiring trends, domain-wise AI skill expectations, and how FAANG+ interviews have changed in the last 12 months. Free resources will also be shared after the event.
Hope this helps someone preparing for 2026:

We're running a free event on the 2026 hiring market next week — panelists from Microsoft, Amazon, Instacart, and Expedia. Sharing in case it's useful (IK employee, not spam)
Full disclosure: I work at Interview Kickstart and helped put this together, so take that for what it is. That said, the content is genuinely free and there's no pitch baked into the event itself.
The panel is called Resurge 2026. It's happening May 12th, 6–8 PM PT. We're covering three things: what the actual 2026 hiring data looks like (jobs are coming back but AI fluency is now basically required), what the AI skill stack looks like by domain, and how interviews have changed at FAANG+ companies in the last 12 months.
Panelists are senior people from Microsoft, Amazon, Instacart, and Expedia — all actively hiring or recently interviewing candidates.
Free to attend, free resources afterward (AI stack guide and self-assessment rubric). Register here if interested: https://interviewkickstart.com/events/resurge2026?utm_source=social&utm_medium=reddit&utm_campaign=L10X_Social_Resurge_reddit9may
