I know a few folks who work at Palantir, and when they do talk about work (not often) it sounds like every other company that does IT consulting. I also don't recall those folks complaining or even mentioning an overly arduous process for hiring, but I guess that doesn't mean there wasn't one.
Someone else mentions this, but it meshes well with what (little) I know about Palantir, and it sounds like this person interviewed with a bunch of different teams, because the recruiter thought they'd be a great fit for the company, but none of the teams were willing to pull the trigger. This is also a massive waste of time for the recruiter and the company, so they wouldn't do it unless they were convinced the candidate would (eventually) find a home.
Maybe the recruiter could have been more transparent about what was going on with the candidate, but those kinds of things happen everywhere, right? Again, nothing specific to Palantir, except maybe the fact that the candidate was willing to go even as far as they did.
