      Software Engineer Interview

      19 Sept 2025
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Databricks in Aug 2025

      Interview

      I was invited to Brickfest and got a free interview from that. The interview was slightly harder than made expected at Brickfest, but still pretty easy overall (lc medium ish). It was suggested to me that the interview would be implementation-type questions rather than leetcode, but the interview was still leetcode. After passing the interview, I was pretty aggressively pressed by the recruiter about my other offers and interview processes, which reflected poorly on the company culture (few of my friends had this experience as well). I would've done the final onsite to see what they're offering, but the 5 hour total duration was way too long and I'd rather spend time prepping for my other interviews so I dropped out. Interviewers are nice and Brickfest was fun though.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      What other companies are you in process with, at what stage, and what's the deadline? Do you have offers from any other companies? How do you weigh Databricks against those other offers?

      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Databricks (Amsterdam)

      Interview

      Had an initial recruiter screen for a Software Engineer position. The call lasted around 15 minutes and covered the usual ground: my background and experience, motivation for applying, current role, and salary expectations. The recruiter also gave a clear overview of teams, the product, and the full interview process ahead.
