I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Pinterest (Dublin, Dublin) in May 2024
Interview
Extremely slow process, if you are scheduling 6-7 rounds, be quick enough. When we as a candidate invest our time in learning about the company, study to successfully clear the interviews, your recruiters could manage to take out 15 mins to convey the feedback. Extremely disappointed after my interview experience at Pinterest Dublin. Don't know why I didn't move to the next round despite solving the problem along with explaining best case/worst case time and space complexity.

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Leetcode 1564. Put Boxes Into the Warehouse I.
Follow up: what is maximum total box sizes.
Recruiter call, tech round, onsite and rejection call. They sent me an email about a week after the last onsite and asked me to schedule a call on the same day. I scheduled a call to listen 30 second long rejection notice. A half of interview rounds were horrible. Interviewers were not prepared and arrogant.
Good experience not the best outcome. Was 1000% sure I completed all coding and sys design but was told didn't get enough signal for the competency round. Overall very organized but not very satisfied with the response.
