Most Common OA Topics
Databricks OA Format and Platform
The Databricks online assessment is delivered through a proctored online platform, most commonly HackerRank. Candidates receive the OA link by email after passing an initial resume review. The coding section typically contains 2 to 3 algorithmic problems with a 70 to 110 minute time limit.
Some Databricks teams include an additional work simulation section that tests judgment and decision-making rather than coding ability. This section is not present for all roles. Check the LeakCode question database filtered by role type to see what past candidates for your specific role reported.
FAQ
Does Databricks have an online assessment?

How hard is the Databricks OA?
Based on candidate reports, Databricks OA problems range from LeetCode medium to hard. Expect at least one problem that requires an efficient algorithm (not brute force) to pass all test cases within the time limit.
