J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 2 mois. J'ai passé un entretien chez Aurora Innovation en mars 2018

The process took two months in total: one month since I submitted my resume until I was contacted by a company recruiter, and another month for a programming test and interviews.
The process:
- The first interview was with a recruiter. He was new at the company and his description of the company and job position was kind of poor (more or less the same information you can find on the website of the company).
- The next step was an online test (Codility). If you pass this test, you get a technical interview.
- The technical interview was with a software engineer. He also joined the company very recently. He told me he is dedication a huge amount of his time to recruiting. The questions of the interview were related to development of simulators. The questions were not difficult.
- I didn't pass to the next level.
My impression is the company is still trying to get enough critical mass and momentum.

Process was recruiter screen → 60 min C++ technical interview.
The recruiter screen was mostly background discussion and role fit. They were specifically interested in experience with computer vision, calibration, sensor systems, and C++.
The technical round focused heavily on C++ fundamentals rather than LeetCode-style trick questions. Topics included pointers/references, stack vs heap allocation, memory management, STL usage, debugging thought process.

It was a very straightforward process which involved classic technical conversation/questions, system design, and a coding section. Overall, the folks I talked to seemed smart and capable and the questions were valid for the role. I applied online, interviewed with their recruiter very shortly after and the rest of the interviews played out pretty quickly after. There was a bit of disorganization about how the process was unfolding on their end but we figured it out.

Recruiter screen, then coding screen on coderpad.io. Couldn't solve their dsa question in time in 45 minutes, so no offer. If I had focused and done all the problems in the Neetcode 150, I would've passed, so this is my fault.
