DoorDash phone screen, Dasher Pay problem
Just had my DoorDash screen, single coding problem for the whole 45 minutes. Calculating dasher pay from order events and timestamps, technically not bad but the follow ups got open ended fast, overlapping orders and peak pay rate boundaries mostly.
Took a bit to reason through the timestamp parsing but got a working solution before time ran out. No SD or behavioral on this call.
Recruiter said next steps in a few business days. Sharing in case anyone else has a DoorDash screen coming up soon.

I've seen a couple posts mention this same problem lately, seems like a common phone screen pull.
Good luck, hope you hear back soon.
How long total was the call, just the coding or did they leave time for questions after?
About an hour total, they left maybe 5 min at the end for my questions.
Had the same dasher pay problem last month, the overlapping orders follow up got me too.
Curious if the interviewer gave any hints or just let you work through it.
