Tips from the candidate

I would advice everyone in the case study rounds to look their interviewers up on LinkedIn, and ask ChatGPT or Claude to give you mock cases related to their past work, projects, and experiences. I was able to predict the case each time.

Company culture

Everyone I spoke to was extremely smart and engaged throughout the interview. They really tried to understand me, how I thought, what projects I worked on, and what motivated me.
