First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at IXL Learning.

The interview started off great, with the interviewer asking a lot of questions to gauge my knowledge of math and my ability to discuss it. However, during one question that I answered correctly, the interviewer stated they would have approached it differently, explained their method, and then abruptly ended the interview, showing clear annoyance. While I'm still interested in the company, this interaction makes me question the working environment if this is the type of colleague I'd encounter, as they seemed very set in their ways.
- Can you explain the process of solving a system of equations using the elimination method?

First, I had a 30-minute phone call with a recruiter. Then, I got a take-home assignment where I had to look at a workbook page and describe any adjustments I'd make and what difficulties students might face. After that, I spoke with management over the phone. Then, I had an in-person meeting with management. Finally, there was a casual, coffee-style chat.
- Tell me about a situation where you incorporated graphics into assessments.

After a phone interview, I had to answer some math questions. Then I got an email saying I didn't get the job. The math questions were like explaining math to a student and they were all levels from 4th grade up to precalculus.
- How can your teaching experience help the company?
- Could you explain math problems to a student, covering topics from 4th grade math up through precalculus?
