I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Matterport (Mountain View, CA) in May 2014
Interview
Hiring process was quick and painless.
- Phone screen with hiring manager.
- Two sets of in-person interviews.
- Moved to offer within a few days of final interview.
Spoke with some smart and passionate people. Walked through some real-world issues facing the company. Much more interesting than the standard hypotheticals.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What does a cow weigh? I understand that this is a fairly typical type of question to test abstract thinking ability for engineers. I had fun with it.
Most interviews focused on experience and approach to typical situations. Nothing out of the ordinary.
