I applied in November and didn’t get an offer for a phone screening until February. The initial interview went as expected. I basically went through my resume and was given some information about the team and the company. During the interview, I did bring up the fact that (based on these reviews of the interview process) people were being told to complete an assessment that takes hours of work and then being rejected after. If you’re even considering doing the assessment, don’t. Seriously. I wish I had heeded the warnings in the other reviews. The offered salary isn’t even high enough to waste your time.

The interview processes consisted of a standard review of resume, phone call with a specialist in your field and then an assignment. But here is where is gets interesting, IXL will put you through their process and keep you in the dark the whole time. You will work diligently on the assignment because you are an expert in your field with years of experience, but the assignment will not be good enough. You will get the same rejection email that they send everyone from a "no reply account" and you will never hear what you did wrong even if you contact them via another email address. In the end, applying to IXL is simply a colossal waste of time. I honestly recommend looking elsewhere.
