I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at C3 AI (Redwood City, CA) in Sep 2024
Interview
I had a short interview with a forward deployed engineer from C3 AI. The interviewer was quite friendly and approachable, which made the experience comfortable. The interview process was fairly standard, beginning with a brief introduction where I shared some background information. Then was followed by a few questions based on my past experiences and technical projects. After that, I had the opportunity to ask him questions.

Question 1
Walk through a project you've worked on recently that you're particularly proud of?
Started with CV screening, then online assessment followed by 2 rounds of technical interview, didn't make it after the 2nd interview. Overall a standard process, and the interviewers were all nice.
Had one behavioral interview, the interviewer wasn’t super friendly and I could only see the top half of her face the entire time. Was very much question and answer, wasn’t much of a conversation
The interviewer didn't give much hints to how to solve the problem and was very rude. There was a systems design interview as well, but the interviewer canceled as I wasn't able to solve the first problem in 15 minutes without any hints.
