      Engineering Manager Interview

      5 Feb 2019
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      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.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Experience. Expectations for next job. Visa sponsorship. Quite standard.

      Engineering Manager Interview

      2 Oct 2021
      Anonymous employee
      Toronto, ON
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Dropbox (Toronto, ON) in Aug 2021

      Interview

      1. Call with recruiter 2. 1 hour assessment call with hiring manager 3. Virtual onsite loop: * 1 hr delivery/process * 1 hr people management * 1 hr technical case study on a system design you've led * 1 hr management case study on how you've led people through a complex project * 30 minutes call with hiring manager (not assessed) 4. Offer call (if proceeding with offer)

      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.

      Engineering Manager Interview

      10 Apr 2019
      Anonymous interview candidate
      San Francisco, CA
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      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.
