I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Qualtrics (Dublin, Dublin) in Aug 2021
Interview
Took about a month. Pretty standard stuff. First round screen interview followed by a 1 hour technical screening interview and then a final round which consisted of 4 interviews. 2 coding, one system design and one HR interview. The coding interviews were all quite manageable. One of the questions was quite close to binary search trees if I remember correctly. In general the coding interviews were quite pleasant as they were framed more as discussions than a test and the questions asked weren't arbitrary brain teasers like some other interview processes. The guy who did the system design interview seemed a little disinterested and was difficult to read whether he was happy or not with what I was talking about.
I felt like I did quite well over the course of all interviews but after a little over a week I was told they went with someone else. When I followed up with the recruiter looking for more detailed feedback as to why I was overlooked, I was ignored which was quite disappointing. The only real negative of the whole process.

Question 1
- Some string manipulation questions
- An issue that required recursion
- Design a file storing system (sort of like google drive)
1st stage technical online assessment, 3 problems to solve of different difficulty, 2 easy and one more advanced. 2nd stage 2 problems to solve during live coding session, not so difficult but you have to do it in most optimal way

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Qualtrics
Interview
The whole process was remote. I was referred by a friend who works here.
1. Chat with recruiter
2. Chat with hiring manager (behavioral questions)
3. Coding Question on hacker rank
4. System Design question - interviewer didn't turn on camera, said very little throughout the process
The recruiter told me that they had been slow in making a decision, that they will get back to me. They never got back to me.

Question 1
Tell me about a time that you made a mistake. How did you handle it?
I applied online. I interviewed at Qualtrics (Provo, UT) in Sep 2025
Interview
The interview process was lengthy, consisting of more than six rounds across multiple stages. I successfully advanced through every interview and reached what I was told was the final system design round. After completing that interview, I was informed that the team still did not have enough signal on my front-end expertise and requested an additional front-end-focused system design interview.
What stood out to me was that this additional interview was conducted by an employee who stated during the interview that he was currently on paternity leave. The interview itself felt disconnected from typical front-end system design discussions and focused on a scenario that I found difficult to relate to real-world front-end engineering responsibilities. The expectations and evaluation criteria were not clear to me, making it challenging to understand what was being assessed.
After investing considerable time across more than six interview rounds and receiving positive feedback throughout the process, the late addition of another interview and the outcome of that final round left me feeling that the process lacked consistency. Overall, I found the interview experience to be much longer than expected and somewhat disjointed in its evaluation of front-end skills.
