Applied carries a Seen Grade of 59/100, with an average wait of about 20 days to hear back and a 38% ghost rate. Here's what applicants report.
Applied Intuition (autonomous-vehicle & defense software) has one of the weaker candidate reputations here — ~44% positive across 220+ Glassdoor interviews plus many critical Blind posts. Recurring themes: recruiters promising next steps in 1-2 days then going silent; leveling/comp bait-and-switch late (agreed ranges recast as 'general', roles down-leveled); red flags like 60k-400k pay bands and asking staff to hide titles. Loop is coding + domain + system design. Fast (~20 days) but often frustrating. Reported average time to first response is about 20 days. Applicants report roughly 5 interview round(s).
