Typically, candidates receive a case/problem statement about a week in advance. Candidates are expected to prepare a response, often in the form of a presentation or document. The actual jam session usually involves 2-3 interviewers from the team.

The focus is less about arriving at the “perfect” answer and more about:

The framework and structure used to approach the problem

Depth of thinking

Consideration of edge cases and operational realities

Product judgment and prioritization

Ability to incorporate feedback live during discussion

Collaboration style and communication

Whether the person seems easy to work with
