      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at C3 AI (Redwood City, CA)

      Interview

      In the screening interview, the engineer taking the interview was really rude. He started flaming my Uni out of random, indicating that most of the graduates were from "Stanford/Berkeley", then started to flame my experiences. I don't think, I was asked one question which was relevant to my experience or the role.

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at C3 AI (Chicago, IL) in Nov 2025

      Interview

      The process was pretty standard. I received a Hackerrank OA followed by a hiring manager round. Another leetcode style and system design round followed by a final behavioural round. All the feedback was positive but after the last round, the manager called me and said they were going in a different direction and said he twasn't allowed to give any feedback.

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at C3 AI in May 2025

      Interview

      1:1 30mins screen with a FDE The interviewer is nice. Asked a lot a lot technical details in my resume. And then asked a few bahavioural questions. "do you have any questions for me? " he kept recording my performance on his side, and asking me to keep asking him questions. I ended up asking 7-8 questions, which I felt that was a little bit out of expectation. At the end, he said I might receive the next step interview from the HR in the next few days. However after 3 weeks I got a rej letter which said their org is changing hiring priority now.
