First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Major League Hacking.
Intern
It started with a quick 15-minute behavioral interview. After that, there was a technical interview where we discussed a project I had chosen during my application. Passing this stage would have led to being placed on a project, but I didn't make it past this point.
- If you could redo your project now, how would you improve it?
Fellow
The interviewer emailed stating I did not seem interested enough even when I wrote an entire essay stating my background, reasoning, and excitement towards this opportunity. I'm not sure how much more detailed I could get when you guys have a small word count maximum, They state that it's an educational program to help students, but they make it more competitive than any startup I applied to.
- What's your motivation for joining MLH?
Summer Fellowship
We talked about a codebase I made before and what I'd change about it. The point was to show I'm good at the job and can work with others and communicate well. The interviewer also asked about my interests and why I applied.
- What improvements would you suggest for the codebase you wrote?
- What are your interests?
- Can you explain your motivations for applying?
