  Grammarly Account Executive interview: mock qualification call and AE debriefGrammarly · Account Executive · Other · May 2026

  Rejected

  My process was shorter and felt focused on getting to a clear signal early. I started with a recruiter interaction where I talked through my background and interest. Then I had a second conversation that went deeper in a similar style, followed by a mock qualification and discovery call and an AE debrief. What surprised me was how quickly the mock call fed into the decision. I expected more conve…

  Grammarly Software Engineer interview with HackerRank and technical codingGrammarly · Software Engineer · Online Assessment · May 2026

  My process started with a HackerRank coding assessment. After that, I had an HR screening round that felt more like a checkpoint than a detailed conversation. The main work came next in a technical coding interview, followed by additional rounds that combined engineering depth with questions about cultural fit. The process felt difficult mainly because the technical portion required real problem-…

  An Onsite Interviewer Who Kept Turning His Camera On and OffGrammarly · Software Engineer · Onsite · Apr 2026

  Coding: Design an in-memory key-value store that supports set, set, count(value) (how many keys currently hold this value), begin, commit, and rollback. This interviewer would easily rank as one of the worst interviewers I've ever had. He didn't communicate with me at all the whole time. Here's how it went: he said he was turning his camera off and I should spend a few minutes reading the problem…

  Grammarly Software Engineer: technical screen, CS fundamentals, backend, and project walkthroughGrammarly · Software Engineer · Technical Screen · Apr 2026

  The process was structured and moved at a steady pace. Before my application was submitted, I completed an initial technical screen. Once the application moved forward, I had a recruiter screening. After that, I met with an interviewer for a computer science fundamentals assessment that lasted about an hour. I then had a backend engineering round that lasted another hour. The final part of that p…

  Grammarly Solutions Engineer interview with a presentation and live demoGrammarly · Solutions Engineer · Other · Apr 2026

  I went through an organized hiring process that lasted several rounds and felt professional from start to finish. Communication stayed consistent.

There were about five to six rounds overall, and the team explained what they w…

  Grammarly Software Engineer four-question coding assessmentGrammarly · Software Engineer · Online Assessment · Mar 2026

  Offer

  My interview process started before I spoke with any engineers. I submitted an application and completed coding assessments with four questions, followed by an HR phone screen. After that, the process focused heavily on live, timed problem solving. I had two live coding rounds. One used LeetCode-style questions, and the other involved solving an actual problem from beginning to end. After the cod…

  An AI-Chat Spreadsheet Design Question and a Brutal 45-Minute Merge ProblemGrammarly · Software Engineer · Onsite · Feb 2026

  Rejected

  Overall people were pretty nice, and the recruiter was attentive — maybe the company just isn't that big yet and is still hiring. The bar for the questions didn't feel well calibrated, honestly a bit exaggerated. At this level, I think only people from the top, currently-hot AI star companies could really handle it. Why bother stressing over this one? Here are the two rounds of technical intervie…
