First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Miro.
Backend Software Engineer
So I went through a couple of stages, like the HR chat and then a live coding thing. The whole thing has five steps: HR screening, live coding, system design, hiring manager chat, and then a team interview. In the HR part, they asked why I wanted to join and about my past work. The live coding was an hour long, and I had to solve an algorithm problem, kind of like LeetCode 45. The interviewers were really cool, friendly, and made it feel collaborative. But yeah, I didn't make it past the live coding because I didn't explain my solution well enough and wasn't super prepared for algorithmic problems.
- Provide an algorithmic problem solution and discuss its complexity.
Program Manager
So the interview process was like this: first a 30-min recruiter call, no real prep needed, just a general video chat. Then, a 45-min chat with the hiring manager, they gave me some info to prep for. After that, there was a group panel, and then I had a follow-up with some partner leader I didn't know. It was a lot of stages. Super unprofessional though, they never got back to me.
- Can you tell me why you are interested in Miro?
- Could you describe your past projects?
- What kind of changes did you have to make?
Art Director
I only had one interview as I didn’t progress to the later stages, mainly because I lacked specific product design experience—though I actually do have it but didn’t mention it during the interview. On the positive side, they provided feedback when I asked why they weren’t moving forward, which I appreciated. It also highlighted their somewhat narrow-minded approach. The interview itself was relatively relaxed, though it felt overwhelming at times due to the heavy focus on STAR method/behavioural questions. In my opinion, a first interview should be a bit more conversational—take it from a former tech employee. A solid 5.
- Can you tell me why you are interested in this position?
- Describe a situation where you had to manage a challenging stakeholder.
- What were your responsibilities in your previous job?
Tax Manager
The interview journey began with a casual coffee chat with the head of tax, which was quite informative. Following that, I submitted my official application. My first formal interview was a screening with a recruiter to assess my overall fit at Miro. Next, I spoke with the head of tax again to delve deeper into the specifics of the role. This was followed by two separate interviews focused on my knowledge of tax and accounting, as well as my collaboration skills. The final stage involved an interview with the head of finance to discuss the Miro mindset.
- Can you tell me about your experience with collaboration?
- Describe a challenging situation you encountered and how you navigated it.
- How do you show resilience in your work?
