Any pointers on SDE interview at Tableau? What to expect?
Typical SDE interview, other than two interviewers per session. Algorithms, design, questions on your past experience, perhaps a couple of "tell me about a time when..." questions. Many interviewers really take the company mission seriously, so probably a good idea to download and play with the product and be ready to answer questions about how you could make use of it.
they also love people who love the vision about understanding your data to make the world better
I used to work at Tableau. Consider other options if you can. Leadership is fractured and having difficulty recovering. If you proceed, typical interview process of data structures and algorithms. 2 interviewers with you. They usually ask a question about scaling because they need help there.
use the product and the core values. pretend to be a data nerd. talk about Microsoft. talk about how you delivered features. features, features, features. customer facing features. don't come off as aggressive or competitive or confrontational
Just talk a lot. Come up with multiple designs and do pro and con before picking an approach. Bluff about the challenges you've faced and almost guaranteed offer.
Do you like stripe?
It's alright
