Interview Details – They contacted me 2 days after I applied online and scheduled a phoen interview with a designer. Even the results were given one day after the interview which was really nice as compared to many other companies. It was one of the most awkward interviews where the designer just called, was unfriendly and really serious in asking questions. The questions seemed like out of a regular checklist he downloaded from internet. Not even sure if the interviewer was listening to the answers. Asked a brainteaser, couldn't hear my answer even after repeating 4-5 times. When asked about the job and position, didn't get any proper answer. The interview ended on an abrupt note.

Question 1
Brainteaser:
4 people have to cross a rope bridge at night. Only 2 can cross at a time and they only have 1 flashlight. The people cross at different speeds - 10 mins, 5 mins, 2 mins, 1 min - and they cross at the speed of the slowest person. What's the fastest way to get everyone across?
I applied online. I interviewed at IXL Learning (Raleigh, NC) in Jan 2026
Interview
Everyone was friendly in the interview process, however, it was a long process from start to finish. Initial interview with a recruiter, then a phone interview with hiring manager. After that, they will offer an in person interview typically.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at IXL Learning (San Mateo, CA) in Apr 2017
Interview
I had an interview, they asked the typical interview questions and the same jelly bean riddle that everyone else said. Then I had to do a design assignment, which I had a week to complete. It was actually a bit of work and took me about the whole week to complete, with the fact that I'm a student with a part time job.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at IXL Learning
Interview
I interviewed with a member of the product management team. There wasn't a brain teaser. Questions are more leaning towards previous experience, projects, and how you would approach a design.
