I applied through a recruiter. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Datadog in Dec 2023
Interview
The process took a month and a half, with the Holidays in the middle.
At first I thought the process was quite cumbersome, but it was actually very smooth and I really enjoyed every bit of feedback after each round.
The team gives you time to prepare for each interview. Follow the tips given by the recruiter and everything will be fine!
Started with a fairly simple coding interview, then a take-home project and finally another coding exercise, a system design interview and a behavioural interview.
Behavioural Interview: questions about what motivate you to join Datadog, questions about a past technical project you had, other classic behavioural questions.
One knowledge interview and one technical interview afterwards. Knowledge was fine. During the tech one, the interviewer was not listening. The problem was a standard one. Got rejected after second round.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Knapsack problem with coins, solved via dynamic programming
Screening RH, qui mentor durant le process, puis deux rounds, le deuxième avec 4 test différents. Bon feedback tout du long. C'est fluide et le RH est là pour aider à préparer les sujets.
El proceso constó de tres fases principales. Primero, apliqué online a un puesto de trabajo disponible. Posteriormente, pasé a una entrevista técnica de aproximadamente una hora, enfocada principalmente en el desarrollo, integración y securización de APIs. También discutimos estrategias de despliegue, monitorización y gestión de recursos en la nube utilizando el ecosistema de Azure. Por último, realizamos un ejercicio conversacional sobre buenas prácticas de código y arquitectura. Fue un proceso fluido y el equipo fue muy profesional.
