I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at C3 AI in Dec 2022
Interview
Initial phone screen with a solutions engineer to learn more about the role and gauge my interest and fit with the company. They sent an OA afterwards with LC mediums and hards. The virtual onsite round had 3 components that were each 45 min long - 2 were technical coding rounds that covered an LC medium and hard, and 1 was a abstract system design question. The final round was 2 30-min behavioral interviews with higher level managers. One of my interviewers initially no-showed, but we were able to quickly reschedule to a few days later, which I appreciated.

Interview
The interview process wasn’t hard. However, my system design interview got cancelled two times and I was told it would be HLD based round, but the interviewer asked me a low level design question. I had not prepared for it at all. The coding round was very very very easy and I passed it without any problem.
The recruiters also almost never reply to you if you have any questions about the interview process
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at C3 AI in Dec 2025
Interview
One round with manager with behavior questions before the technical ones.
There was no salary range discussion or information about the role. Then 2 technical rounds for coding and system design. The interviewer of first round did not show up and the 2nd round was with a manager to implement a design system, the interview ends right in the middle since the manger says something like: "Work more on your design skills and we will consider you later". The interviewer was very impatient and lacks communication skills. I don't think they give any respect to the candidate's time and effort, avoid if you have another opportunity.
