Palantir interview: Forward deployment engineer

applied online for the FDSE (Forward Deployed Software Engineer) role. About two weeks later, HR reached out and scheduled the first-round phone interview, which was around 30 minutes. I’d recommend preparing well for the first round because they seem to take it pretty seriously. The interviewer asked what I knew about Palantir, why I was interested in Palantir, and why I wanted to join the company. Basically, make sure you can explain your motivation clearly and show genuine enthusiasm.
