      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Mozilla (Rānchī) in Feb 2016

      Interview

      I had two interviews with a break of one week in between. Mozilla engineers from around the world come to interview. My first interview was related to HTML, CSS and good practices. The second interview was related to some JavaScript question. Didn't get the offer. They didn't give much hint of the problems. No algorithm questions asked as I expected they would.

      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Mozilla in Aug 2022

      Interview

      The first round was a chat with a technical recruiter. The second was with a manager asking for STAR examples of behaviours. There was then a one hour take-home exercise submitted online. The final round was a set of interviews totalling two hours on technical thinking, role relationships and a review of the take-home. All of these except the recruiter chat were rigidly structured, based around questioning without further exploration or conversation. This was the full process, which took a few weeks. Communication was clear and consistent - I was not ghosted. While I was engaged in it, I felt that the process was positive in comparison to other large tech companies - no leetcode, no hostile questioning, no heavy demands on your time. However, it was lightweight and I was left wondering whether they really learnt enough about me or my skills to make a good hiring decision (especially an offer) on an important role. I didn't learn very much about the company either. I found it interesting that I was never asked anything about so many important topics: leadership, culture, DEI, people development, senior/staff-level behaviours and methods of operating. I'm sure the assessment bar is set higher, but the questions seemed to reflect a junior/mid-level interview. The discussed compensation was fairly good so I don't really understand what they're doing here - no doubt they have their own priorities, but it seems like a fairly big missed opportunity. Within a few days, I was informed that feedback was very positive but they had chosen another candidate. However, the role remains advertised, so this seems less than transparent. Having invested time in this process, I hoped to receive candid, meaningful feedback but I have not been able to obtain any. These details aside, I did really like what I saw of Mozilla as an organisation, but personally it was a mixed experience and I doubt I would consider applying again in future.
