J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 4 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez IXL Learning (San Mateo, CA) en oct. 2021
Entretien
1) Recruiter screening over phone. Basic questions and info about the role.
2) Interview with their VP of Product.
3) Take home assignment. It was about developing features for an aspect of their elementary school product.
4) Review of take-home assignment with VP of Product.
5) Virtual "on-site" interview with various people. A design-focused chat with an APM. A "logic puzzle" interview with a senior PM. A culture-focused chat with two APMs. Then an interview with COO and VP of Product simultaneously.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
They asked me to evaluate two versions of an interface — but they only differed in extremely aesthetic, superficial ways. No UX tradeoffs or anything. Seemed kind of strange, to be honest.

J'ai postulé via un établissement d'enseignement supérieur ou universitaire. J'ai passé un entretien chez IXL Learning (San Mateo, CA) en janv. 2026
Entretien
HR resume screening then a couple interviews with current APM, the VP of Product, and final panel with the team. I think interviewer is super nice but I don't like the whole concept of putting you on the spot to think about an obscure logic puzzle. I expressed my structured thinking and thought clearly but could not come up with the right answer which I think what ultimately caused the rejection.

Question 1
Why this role? UI/UX Website critique and walkthrough. Logic puzzle questions.
