I applied online. I interviewed at Prelim (New York, NY) in Oct 2024
Interview
Pretty typical interview. Phone screen (do research on company), 3 technicals (leetcode, any language), did not make it further. The questions were not too hard, probably leetcode easy or medium.

Interview
Interviewers were professional and very transparent in answering questions about the role and company.
They're a ~30-person startup, but interview like a big tech company (screener + 3 technical rounds + 2 behavioral/culture fit rounds), so keep that in mind if you decide to apply.
