Transfix Interview Questions

Interview process lasted 2 weeks, recruiter was great and followed up with a feedback after every round. Everyone who interviewed me was very nice and questions were relevant. There was three rounds of interview: with recruiter, senior manager and AP analyst team.

A recruiter reached out to me after I submitted an online application. The recruiter gives off a very sales-y vibe but was overall a nice introduction to the company. The next step was a technical screen with an engineering manager where you’ll be pulling data from an API to create a modal of images. I tried my best to interact with the interviewer and he let me go down a HTML/CSS rabbit hole which ate away at the time. Definitely focus on the React side of things and brush up on hooks and basic array manipulation. The interviewer seemed very uninterested. He would mute himself and then look at another screen. If I got stuck, and even when I’d fully explain my steps, he’d be silent and I’d have to give him context to get ramped up. He’d have the context if he paid attention. It wasn’t a very interactive pairing session. This added to my nerves and made the experience uncomfortable and awkward. For a company that says they care about inclusion this interview sure felt like every other stuffy one I’ve had in the industry which is unfortunate as I was excited with the possibility for working at Transfix.

I had an initial phone interview. I received a phone call out of nowhere, 30 days after I applied. I declined to speak at that moment and scheduled it for the next day.

I thoroughly enjoyed the people I met during the interview process. The recruiters were very communicative and helpful, while the members of interview panel were friendly and clear with their expectations throughout. The initial screening was via phone with a recruiter. They set the parameters of what to expect and what the role entailed. There was also of moment of housekeeping, where we discussed salary wants. The next two rounds were with leads in the department, whom I could possibly work with. A great tactic that gives a preview of compatibility with various styles of interviews that mirrored leadership styles. These rounds were conducted virtually. The final round was also virtual and was with the director the department. A great conversation that centered around growth potential and confirming the mission of the company. The recruiter I spoke to in the initial screening, stayed in contact throughout the rounds. They played a great point of contact and gave feedback along the way. Within the week, I was called and offered the position, which I excitedly accepted. Overall, I had a positive interviewing experience with Transfix. Each person made me feel comfortable and excited to join such a great team of colleagues.

The process was 4-6 weeks and very disorganized. Throughout the whole time meeting with them, there were 4 different recruiters handling my interview process. We discussed salary expectations on the first call and received quality feedback the entire way. When it came time to make a decision, I was removed from the process for having too high of salary expectations. Nothing along the way communicated that I was in the wrong ball-park. Overall a poor interview experience especially when the recruiter mentioned that they weren't even familiar with the industry.

Interview process was great and smooth. They seemed interested in what I had to say. They were willing to listen and they gave immediate feedback. I’m excited for the next step

The interview process I went through was excellent. The first round was a take home that tested my Front End knowledge. The next round had questions that were relevant to what the company does day to day and some Back End questions. I can't say enough good things about my interview experience with Transfix. My point of contact, Steve, was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process.

I was reached by an external recruiter on LinkedIn to apply to the position at Transfix. The interview process took a month including a few one-hour interviews and a virtual onsite interview round that lasted a complete day. One of the interviews was intended for a different role (frontend vs backend) and even after they recognized their mistake they continued with the interview asking frontend questions. Everything was looking fine, but when I expressed I was about to have a child, they send an email saying they will move in another direction without explaining why nor providing any feedback about my performance on the interview process. I think is fair enough for a candidate to receive meaningful feedback after expending several time on an interview process, even worst if is pushed to lose a complete day in his current job or if the reason for rejection seems to be discrimination for becoming a parent.
