I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at MongoDB in Sep 2015
Interview
Behavioral phone interview for about 30 minutes. No technical questions were asked. They asked about my prior projects. Then, they asked about my experience with MongoDB, and then they asked if I had any questions about the intern program or the company. It was quite brief, and they got back to me the following week with the results of the interview
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at MongoDB (Dublin, Dublin) in Mar 2026
Interview
Some behavioral questions and a rate limiter coding question with a staff engineer. They really wanted full proof code with no syntax errors and no interviewer guidance. Felt like the interviewer was not attentive.
Saw a fresh ad online, applied quickly and got a quick follow-up from recruiter. So far so good. Well, that's where it ends. After the recruiter call was scheduled, I got completely ghosted.
The interview process was seamless, and the recruiter was helpful and communicative throughout the process. The interviewers were friendly and knowledgeable. The interviews included DSA, Design, Concurrency, and Behavioural aspects. Had a great experience overall.
