Question 1
jelly bean brain teaser, red and blue hats problem.
I applied through college or university. I interviewed at IXL Learning (San Mateo, CA) in Jan 2026
Interview
HR resume screening then a couple interviews with current APM, the VP of Product, and final panel with the team. I think interviewer is super nice but I don't like the whole concept of putting you on the spot to think about an obscure logic puzzle. I expressed my structured thinking and thought clearly but could not come up with the right answer which I think what ultimately caused the rejection.
