I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Atlassian in Jul 2022
Interview
The interviewer asked multiple approaches to one coding problem. It was more like a discussion and the interviewer wanted to judge my thinking process and communication skills. The question was,
Given 2 password arrays password_arr1 and password_arr2, where password_arr1 is the list of passwords previously used and password_arr2 is the list of passwords that are to be queried. Return the array indexes representing the time when the passwords in the password_arr2 array were last used. Note that the password is considered to be used if its anagram exists in the password_arr1 array. For Example, password_arr1 = [‘polo’, ‘neal’, ‘nodl’] , password_arr2 = [‘lean’, ‘ldon’, ‘loop’].
I applied online. I interviewed at Atlassian (Sydney) in May 2026
Interview
AI assisted coding interview, the interviewer wasn't really guiding any of the coding process or the process when using the agent-- kind of just sat back. It was unclear on whether or not they wanted you to utilise the AI agent or not, it says that it's highly encouraged, but that ultimately led me to a rejection!
overall process took ~2 months (applied on Sept 9, received OA on 9/12 and did it on 9/20, round 1 10/18, round 2 11/3 --> call for offer 11/9)
- OA (90mins)-> 1st round (technical, 45 mins) -> behavioral w a engineering manager (45 mins)
- OA: had two or three qs i think
OA (3dsa questions) followed by an interview, gave a graphs question
The next round was going to be an HR round with focus on resume
Slightly on the difficult side
