I applied online. I interviewed at Palantir Technologies (New York, NY)
Interview
It started off with a recruiter call where they asked about logistics and basic questions like why Palantir. Then I got invited to the decomposition and learning round where I got rejected. Decomp is a bit like system design and learning is they introduce a new concept and want you to apply it on the spot.
