I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at DoorDash (New York, NY) in Aug 2021
Interview
Phone screen. And then HM interview. And then 4 interview onsite (2 coding, 1 system design, 1 behavioral). And then decision.
It was relatively straightforward, and I got feedback throughout the process.

Question 1
Q: what features do you want to see in Door dash
And then typical leetcode style questions for coding. Not-so-strange questions for the rest.
coding online assesment virtual onsite. interviewers were professional and helpful. asked to deep dive on project. recruiter was responsive and could align with offer deadlines. was helpful with negotiations. coding problems were average difficulty.
Walking into the coding interview, I was taken aback when they asked about finding the K nearest restaurants based on coordinates. Just days before, I had stumbled on a mock on prachub.com that mirrored this question almost exactly. The interview felt straightforward, but I struggled with some behavioral questions. Overall, the experience was underwhelming; I expected more technical depth. After several rounds, they decided to go in another direction, which was disappointing given my prep efforts.

Question 1
Given a list of restaurants with their coordinates and a user's location, find the K nearest restaurants
it was very easy, they ask basic programming questions, can be solved with minimal prep, however they ask a lot about why u want to work here, be prepared to talk for a long time
