Question 1
-Parsing string array of data for relevant information
A university recruiter reached out to me via email to request availability for an interview with the cartography team. Two weeks later, I met with the hiring manager to discuss my experience and interests.
First round was 30 minute technical discussion with hiring manager. Good experience but did not move forward. 15 minutes on my past internship experience. 15 minutes on how I would build an agent. Recruiter reached out 2 months later.
Only the behavioral round, but it was very interesting to say the least. Was asked the basic STAR questions but it turned into a very good conversation. Know your resume inside out and be prepared to talk about yourself.
