  • Box Account Executive final presentation processBox · Account Executive · HR Screen · May 2026

    I interviewed for the Account Executive role at Box and went through a fairly standard process over a few rounds. The difficulty felt moderate, although the experience varied between feeling supported and wanting more clarity. The process included a recruiter screen about my background and fit for the role. There was also a virtual manager or hiring manager interview. In some accounts, that conve…

  • Rejected

    The process started out promising and turned into a long endurance test. I went through several rounds with a professional, easy-to-talk-to interview team. Around the middle of the process, I was told that I had cleared everything. The hiring timeline kept stretching after that. I then entered a "cooling-off" period of about four weeks with no communication. Just when I thought the process was ov…

  • Box Software Engineer interview with a two-hour technical screen and LLD roundBox · Software Engineer · Technical Screen · May 2026
    Rejected

    My Box Software Engineer interview felt like a classic LeetCode-style process, with more emphasis on data structures than algorithms. The first technical screen lasted about two hours. The interviewer joined at the beginning and again at the end just to discuss the results. The next coding and DSA round took about an hour, with the interviewer on the call the entire time. After that, there was a…

  • Box Frontend Engineer interview: unclear final coding feedbackBox · Frontend Engineer · Technical Screen · Apr 2026

    The interviews were technically focused, but the final coding conversations soured the process for me. After the earlier rounds went smoothly, I reached a final coding interview where the interviewer couldn’t explain the questions or feedback clearly. It was hard to stay focused on implementing the solution because I kept feeling like the target was moving while I worked. The feedback afterward m…

  • The process had a disappointing start. The first round was a conversation with a manager, but the interviewer was so quiet that it didn't feel like a dialogue. I didn't get much chance to explain my experience before the call moved on. From my perspective, it wasn't a serious evaluation of fit or skills. I felt as though I wasn't allowed to contribute, and I didn't move forward afterward. What I…

  • Box Software Engineer interview: React todo list and full-stack tasksBox · Software Engineer · HR Screen · Mar 2026

    My early Box process felt smooth and organized. I started with a recruiter screening where I introduced myself, walked through my job history, and shared my expectations for the role. The recruiter was understanding and helpful, and answered my questions as they came up. The technical part moved into practical frontend work. I fixed a dropdown implementation on the frontend and then built a simpl…

  • I interviewed for an Account Executive role at Box. The process felt average to poor in terms of coordination, with delays and weak feedback that made it harder to stay confident and prepared. The recruiter screen included conversations that either went fine at first or failed to meet the expectations that had been set. The hiring manager and next-round interviews were virtual, and urgent request…

  • Rejected

    My experience started with a lot of momentum and then collapsed into confusion. After I applied, I completed three one-hour interviews covering coding, data structures, and system design. The recruiter's feedback was very positive, and I was described as the top candidate. I was asked to wait while the team looked for the right fit across several teams. That's when things became unclear. After I…

  • Aced Five Rounds, Failed on the Resume Deep-DiveBox · Software Engineer · Senior+ · Onsite · Aug 2025
    Rejected

    A recruiter reached out to me about a Senior SDE position — half development, half DevOps. I didn't have DevOps experience, but I said yes anyway. Round 1 was the technical phone screen, the classic four questions. The interviewer laughed and admitted the questions hadn't changed in years. A system has failed and you can only SSH in to check the logs. The log file is huge — what do you do? Answer…
