      I interviewed at iHerb

      Interview

      Only facts at first. What was different comparing to other interview reports on this page: - Interviewers who don't want to interview are not forced to do this now. Not all interviewers arrived, but those who made it actually listened. - They are aware that Facebook, Google, Microsoft are better. What was confirmed by other reports: - Book questions, a lot of them. "React.js was first released in which year?" Not exactly this question, but very similar. - Elementary level algorithm to write a whatever-first-search of a directed graph. Basically a book question with 1 difference: anyone who knows basic algorithms will answer it. - They failed basic questions about the best coding practices Q: Do you perform code reviews? A: We don't need them, they are for junior developers. Q: Can you build the project in one step? A: We don't need this, we use micro services. My opinion after being interviewed with other companies. A typical onsite interview day at Amazon/Google/Microsoft is infinitely more enjoyable than 1 interview at iHerb. You know that Silicon Valley hiring process is criticized by a lot of people? I will tell you that the interview process at iHerb is worse. Yes, going through hard algorithm problems feels better than answering book questions from a company that rejects best coding practices.

      I interviewed at iHerb (Irvine, CA)

      Interview

      Average. A few rounds with hiring manager, a senior engineer, and QA. It was very lengthy, and communications were scarce. One round had to be rescheduled due to the person being unavailable.

      The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at iHerb

      Interview

      Poor experience with the interviewer. This was virtual interview. They were just trying to prove me wrong from start. Showing me that they are superior just because they are interviewers. Unprofessional experience. One of the interviewers was wearing shorts and seems like he came straight out of bed.
