A bit rushed; didn't give feedback which is always annoying; felt a bit random with how they rejected, but didn't get the logic puzzle so that could be why; format was a behavioral question, how to improve the website, logic puzzle
J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 3 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez IXL Learning en avr. 2025
Entretien
Had a phone call with the recruiter from IXL Learning. We had a great chat over the 30 minutes and I shared a lot of experience I had in my previous role. The recruiter also shared that they are actively hiring and even asked if I am interested in some other roles (internal tool vs B2C products) she was hiring. However, I got GHOSTED. After following up two times in the following two weeks, I heard nothing back. This is really sad.

Interview was pretty standard, but they completely ghosted me after the second round. Its fine if you are rejecting me, but I find it unprofessional and a bad candidate experience to not hear back whatsoever.
J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. Le processus a pris 2 mois. J'ai passé un entretien chez IXL Learning (San Francisco, CA) en août 2025
Entretien
The process was unnecessarily long and utterly disorganized. I applied for a Product Manager role but was unexpectedly down-leveled to an Associate PM position without explanation. The recruiter took two to three weeks to respond between each step, which made the entire process drag on for over a month.
The first round was a conversational interview with PM, followed by a lengthy take-home assignment that required deep product analysis and writing. After submitting thoughtful, detailed work, I received a generic rejection email with no feedback.
For a company focused on learning and improvement, the lack of transparency, feedback, and respect for candidate time was disappointing. The process felt more like a test of endurance than a genuine evaluation of product thinking. A great mission doesn’t excuse a poor interview experience.
