I applied in-person. I interviewed at Databricks in Dec 2020
Interview
Interview Process was long and thorough. Had 4 phone screens with hiring management and 1 coding assignment, which is not hard and one can easily finish within a day. No response after that and no notification of final result either. Recruiting team was not responsive during the process and made obvious mistakes in their deliverables.

Question 1
Signed NDA but all basic questions. Nothing is too fancy,
spanning resume question, behavioral question and tech question.

I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Databricks (New York, NY) in Nov 2020
Interview
The interview process is long and thorough; and my experience through all of it was great! The recruiter was very responsive and helpful. The process involved an offline coding interview, 5 initial interviews, a superday with 4 interviews and a presentation.
Note: The number of calls before the superday might vary as I was being interviewed for a sister team earlier.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Databricks (San Francisco, CA) in Jan 2021
Interview
Contacted via email. Did an initial phone screening, followed by a coding assignment, and 3 more interviews with management. Eventually, the company ghosted me and did not have the politeness to notify me that they were not going to follow up with my application.
