I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Axon in Aug 2023
Interview
- Initial meeting with the recruiter
- Pretty interesting take-home systems design assignment, followed by a 1h session to discuss it
- Panel interviews with Engineering and Product directors/managers
No trick questions, but we did cover a lot of my background and career interests.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
There were the standard questions like describe a couple of projects, your role on those projects, and such, then drill into that a bit. I wouldn't say it was easy, but the questions were fair and more or less expected.
I applied online. I interviewed at Axon (Seattle, WA) in June 2026
Interview
1) recruiter chat, normal questions with logistics
2) chat with hiring manager, focusing on previous working experience, went really well
3) Take home system design, turn in writing document
4) Present the take home system design to two team members and answer their questions/deep dive
