Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

I completed an online coding challenge. Following that, I participated in a phone interview.

During the interview, we used a shared screen to write code. Unfortunately, the interviewer's communication was poor. They seemed distracted, as if working on something else, and paid minimal attention to my responses.

I did not receive a follow-up from Palantir after the phone interview.
