Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Can you tell us your approach to dealing with situations and issues which might have to be escalated due to user sentiment or what appears to be a high impact platform issue?
I applied online. I interviewed at Box (Chicago, IL)
Interview
The interview process started with a phone interview. After the phone interview, there was an interview with the Hiring Manager. After the Hiring Manager, there was a separate interview with 4 of the team members. The whole process took over 2 weeks for me.

Question 1
Describe an issue that you had to assist a client with. How did you resolve the issue?
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Box (Austin, TX) in Apr 2024
Interview
I had a 30-minute call with the recruiter, followed by a 30-minute call with the hiring manager, four back-to-back 30-minute interviews with team members, and a 1-hour presentation. I read the reviews here before the interview and I can agree: the process is overkill for a salary that's pretty close to what you might earn as a cashier at Costco or similar positions. This was the first time I've felt compelled to leave a negative review for an interview—it actually leaves a sour taste post-interview. From my experience, the process was much easier for substantially higher-paying jobs. The only saving grace was that the people seemed nice.
I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Box in Jul 2022
Interview
One of the best interviewing experiences I've ever had. We started with a 30-min HR phone screening. Then I had a 30-min manager screening specific to the team I'd be working with. Next was an interview panel with 4, 30-min 1:1s with various different team members, and a short presentation.
The entire team was really great and the process was super transparent.
