Have a possible interview coming up for SWE at the NYT. Can anyone here share their experiences with the coding / system design / behavioral aspects of their interviews? Can't find much aside from "be a lib" responses. #interviews #nytimes #nyc #systemdesign #leetcode #behavioralinterview
I did a phone screen with NYT once and there was a big focus on “believing in the mission”. Basically being a Progressive, technical skills are secondary. I solved the interview questions but didn’t make it to onsite.
If you are woke then its your dream job. Otherwise GTFO there. Work environment is poisonous for those who are not hardcore liberal & democrat
The recruiter should offer you a prep call for the final panel where they’ll literally tell you exactly what they’ll ask in the interviews so just try to schedule that with enough time to prep before your actual interview. Behaviorals are just as important as tech interviews
