Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Process, Delivery, and People management questions are pretty standard, but you will get tested for how you've demonstrated them in the past. The technical and management case studies was a different experience from other interviews I've attended and requires a lot of prep.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Dropbox (San Francisco, CA) in Apr 2019
Interview
Phone calls with Hiring Manager and recruiter.Entire day in the San Francisco office. I thought the interviews went well. No response at all for a week after the interview. No details given. I would not waste time interviewing here. They probably don't have open positions and just interviewing for the sake of it.
Thanks for sharing your experience with us, and sorry to hear that the team never got back to you. I will pass along to the engineering hiring team, as this is not part of a stellar candidate experience. We would never want anyone to feel like we are wasting their time or not closing the loop. Best of luck on your job search, and we’re we can earn back your trust in the future.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Dropbox in Aug 2018
Interview
The recruiter reached out to me via email with even a few time slots for phone call in the first email, which is pretty efficient to be honest. We set up some time, and then discussed a few standard recruiter-round interview questions and what the role would be like. She sent over more detailed information about the job opening and asked me if I had questions. I asked a couple of questions about the role and team, and then never heard back again.

Question 1
