      Frontend Engineer Interview

      31 Oct 2024
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Amsterdam
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Box (Amsterdam) in Oct 2024

      Interview

      You might not believe it, but there are 6 interview stages. Three are online coding sessions on HackerRank, and the other three focus on cultural fit and problem-solving questions. The interviewers weren’t friendly at all, they didn’t even return my greeting. There’s not enough time to complete the tests, and the interviewers seemed to be just waiting for the interview to end so they could hang up. There’s no organization in the process either. For instance, in one interview, I was supposed to answer JavaScript questions, but they asked me to work on React instead. And in the end, after all those hours spent, they send a standard rejection message. Even though I asked for feedback, they didn’t bother to send any follow-up email. Overall, it was a really bad experience, and I honestly wasted my time with this company. Don’t make the same mistake I did.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Writing a JavaScript class to handle events, working on a section of the company’s control panel, building a to-do app using React, and solving problem-solving questions.

      Hi and thanks for taking the time to interview with Box and leave us your feedback. We are sorry to hear that your experience with us was not a positive one, as we always strive to ensure a great candidate experience for all. I will pass along this feedback to the team and ensure that our hiring teams are more timely in their interviews and that there are no surprises in coding language expectations from the interviewer and candidate. There should have been a more personalized conversation offered to you post-on-site, and we're sorry that did not happen. We appreciate you sharing your experience with us and hope to make the process better going forward.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Box (Amsterdam) in Oct 2024

      Interview

      I applied for their Amsterdam office. After the first two interviews, there were still about four more stages to go. What I noticed was that the interviewers were all young and inexperienced, which made the interview environment really toxic. They seemed more focused on proving themselves rather than listening to the candidate. I’d recommend valuing your time and avoiding this lengthy and time-consuming process with this company. The interviews were very different from their titles, and they won’t ask you what’s mentioned in the invitation email.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      The first interview is mostly about HR topics, but the next five are purely technical. There’s not enough time, and the interviewer seems more focused on trying to confuse you rather than evaluating your skills.

      Frontend Engineer Interview

      23 Jul 2024
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Warsaw, Masovia
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Box (Warsaw, Masovia)

      Interview

      It was one of the worst interview processes in my career. I applied via the Box website and had a call with a recruiter (tell me about yourself, etc.). After that, I had two technical interviews. The first was about data structures, and the second focused more on UI. During the second interview, I had two engineers who didn’t listen to me, were doing their own stuff, and didn’t follow me while I was coding. All coding was done using the HackerRank platform during that interview. I faced challenges that impacted my performance. Both interviewers were unable to assist in resolving the issue promptly, resulting in wasted time. I was rejected and wrote about the technical issues to the recruiter, but she didn’t respond.
