I applied through university. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at MongoDB (New York, NY) in Dec 2013
Interview
Got contacted initially by the college recruiter. We set up a time for a quick 30-min behavioral screen and what followed was a phone coding interview. If that had gone well, there would have been an onsite.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
A lot of questions about database choices. Know what NoSQL is, what MongoDB is. Got eliminated after a really easy phone interview question - this is one of my first interviews and I did not know what I was doing.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at MongoDB in Sept 2020
Interview
1. Applied online as well as got an intern referral
2. 25 minute phone call interview with recruiter was very pleasant. Call was to gauge interest in the work MongoDB does.
Did not make it to final round. Communication was very clear and had a fast turnaround.

Interview

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at MongoDB (New York, NY)
Interview
Really good and well structured interview process. The recruiters replied within a day max if not sooner, the interviewers were all invested and did not come across as cocky. Other companies should really look at MongoDB's interview process to know what a good end to end process/pipeline looks like.
