I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Databricks
Interview
1. tech screen (DSA) was leet code medium
2. meeting with recruiter
3. virtual onsite (algorithms (leetcode medium), systems design, behavioral, coding)
coding round was easy, algorithms was medium to hard, systems design round was hardest
I applied online. I interviewed at Databricks (Ámsterdam) in Nov 2025
Interview
Chat with recruiter first. Then another interview doing leetcode style questions while sharing your screen with a senior and junior databricks engineer looking at your work. Cannot use any help from AI, googling etc. They want you to only focus on the leetcode, did not make it past this round.

Question 1
Typical leetcode stuff; complexity, testing, style, etc.

Interview
Technical phone screen. Lasted 1 hour, one coding question. My solution works on all sample inputs provided. During the coding process I was asked edge cases, how and why choose the algorithm I want as the solution to the problem, explain difference between this algorithm and another similar algorithm.
