Palantir Interview Questions With // // //




Answers
// //




Tell me about something that you once failed at and how you
// // // // // // // // // // //



improved over time. - CORRECT ANSWERS(S)✔✔Public speaking
// // // // // // //



used to be my worst nightmare. In classes in high school, I
// // // // // // // // // // // //



would rarely raise my hand due to social anxiety. I also never
// // // // // // // // // // // //



was apart of any club or teams back then because of my
// // // // // // // // // // // //



shyness. But, in college I knew it was a fear I needed to
// // // // // // // // // // // // //



eradicate from my life. I have always wanted to be a business
// // // // // // // // // // // //



person and persuasive, clear communicative skills are apart of
// // // // // // // // //



the job. So, in college, I applied for the Director of External
// // // // // // // // // // // //



Affairs, and a huge part of that job is public speaking. There
// // // // // // // // // // // //



were times were fear overtook me, but most of the time I put
// // // // // // // // // // // // //



that aside to do my job. I did this by practicing over and over. I
// // // // // // // // // // // // // // //



even practiced for recurring meetings that we had every week. I
// // // // // // // // // // //



practiced introducing myself. I practiced asking them if there
// // // // // // // // //



was anything I could do to help them achieve their goals. As
// // // // // // // // // // // //



trivial or cliche as it sounds, I wanted to be a better, less
// // // // // // // // // // // // //



anxious leader and I basically implemented immersion therapy
// // // // // // // //



on myself to get rid of that fear. Though I still deal with it to
// // // // // // // // // // // // // // //



this day, I have definitely become more comfortable with clear,
// // // // // // // // // //



concise communication in front of large groups of people.
// // // // // // // // //




What are your interests? What do you love working on? -
// // // // // // // // // //



CORRECT ANSWERS(S)✔✔Well, within my background, I mostly
// // // // // // //

, have experience with financial analytics. However, I have yet to
// // // // // // // // // //



have the opportunity to directly apply economics to my work.
// // // // // // // // // //



I've always been interested in learning more about financial
// // // // // // // // //



sales rather than the analyzation portion. I want to the
// // // // // // // // // //



contribute to the revenue generating part of this firm and
// // // // // // // // // //



developing strategies to better business processes.
// // // // // //




Describe a tough financial or business problem you have faced
// // // // // // // // //



recently. - CORRECT ANSWERS(S)✔✔Well, with the pandemic
// // // // // // //



occurring at the same year I graduated from UCSD, it made
// // // // // // // // // // //



searching for a job much more difficult than I initially
// // // // // // // // // //



anticipated. This, of course, put my finances in a tough spot
// // // // // // // // // // //



given that I had bills to pay without any income. Unable to leave
// // // // // // // // // // // // //



my home and with the job search taking longer, I decided to use
// // // // // // // // // // // // //



my time exploring new skills. For instance, I researched the
// // // // // // // // // //



stock market for weeks and decided to put my savings in ETFs
// // // // // // // // // // // //



so that I wasn't just losing money. I thought I made a good
// // // // // // // // // // // // //



decision given the minimal options that I had in front of me.
// // // // // // // // // // // //




Why do you want to work for Palantir? - CORRECT
// // // // // // // // //



ANSWERS(S)✔✔When I began applying to different companies,
// // // // // // //



at first, I was mass applying to every job that sounded "good",
// // // // // // // // // // // //



especially with the economy being where it was when the
// // // // // // // // // //



pandemic first began. If I had heard of the company, I applied. If
// // // // // // // // // // // // //



the position sounded like something I would be good at, I
// // // // // // // // // // //



applied. Then, after sending tons of applications out, I stopped
// // // // // // // // // //



and decided to analyze the way in which I was going about
// // // // // // // // // // // //



searching for a job. I had a conversation with a Google recruiter
// // // // // // // // // // // //
