Chegg Interview Questions

Application

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Chegg (San Francisco, CA) in June 2016.

Interview

I applied on glassdoor and a recruiter calls me a day or two after and sends over a coding challenge. I took the challenge and they said I did great, then get a 45 min phone interview. The interviewer had a hard time getting out his question, I think he made it up on the spot, and the next couple of days I get a rejection email.

Interview

Pretty standard tech interview process ala 2016. First a phone screen with a company recruiter, then a take home test, then onsite. The take home test was supposed to be done in 3 hours, but in reality I doubt anyone could finish it this quickly and up to standard. The onsite interview took 4 hours and was pretty friendly, although I didn't get to tour the office or meet anyone else besides the few people who interviewed. Aside from that, I think it obvious that they're seeking (and holding out for) the rare unicorn who is off the charts both in computer science, knows a language or two outside of Javascript, in addition to a deep knowledge of front end/UI development itself. Apparently, they have been trying to fill this particular position for 1-2 years. All in all, I feel like my time was wasted because I let them know from the beginning what my strengths/weaknesses were, yet the interview mainly focused on the weak parts.

Interview

The HR guy contacted initially, followed by a phone screen. The HR guy seemed nice and gave me a detailed overview of the company
The interviewer seemed to be confused and outright rude at times. Asked me design question and kept on confusing me as I was trying to come up with a solution.

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Chegg (Louisville, KY).

Interview

A recruiter contacted me about an opening for a software engineer. I submitted my resume and then he set up an interview the next week. The interview was with an HR person and a tech person. It went well, but I was pretty sure I was not quite as experienced as they were looking for. They took me to see the tech manager right after for a one on one interview.

The whole process was very quick and everyone involved was friendly. I was right about the amount of experience though as that is what they stated about why they declined to make me an offer.

I applied online. I interviewed at Chegg.

Interview

It was a standard process until I got to the first technical interview. It was a guy with a heavy accent talking on a poor cell phone connection making up trivia questions as he went along. By far the worst interview I have experienced. Totally unprofessional. I suggest you don't waste your time.

Interview

I applied online and I thought I would never hear back. But they did take a month to respond after which I had a phone interview with the head of the internship program. After a couple of days, she said I got through to the next round at which point I had a phone interview with two people who I would possibly work for.
