First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Miro.
Frontend Developer
First, I had a recruiter round where two recruiters were super helpful and gave me all the info I needed. Then, there was a coding round, which was a medium Leetcode problem. I didn't get much help when I asked questions. It was okay overall. After that, I had a design round. The question was to design a piece of Miro, which they were clearly already biased towards. They barely worked with me on my proposed solution. The interviewers seemed more focused on their paychecks than the product. I noticed bad teamwork and passive-aggressive behavior. It's been two weeks and I haven't heard back, so I guess they just ghost you if you don't pass.
- Was there a Leetcode medium problem?
- Can you describe the system design for a Miro board with core functions like text, image, and post-its, supporting multiple collaborators?
Senior Frontend Engineer
I'd recommend reading this genuine review and saving your time. The process is hay-wired, don't waste your time. The stages were: 1- HR call 2- Live coding 3- System design 4- Team round 5- Engineering manager. The HR call was a normal chat about the position and my experience. In the Live coding round, I was asked a really trivial question about promises, specifically coding an event loop. I found it pretty easy. The interviewer said it wasn't scalable even though he found no mistakes in my solution, and when I asked him to elaborate so I could show him how it would scale, he just stayed silent. For System design, I was asked to design something like Miro, a real-time collaborative whiteboard. It was a huge problem with many dimensions to solve in just an hour, and the interviewers kept jumping from one topic to another, which felt like a complete waste of time. The Team round involved discussing my past experiences and projects. The Engineering manager asked mostly behavioral questions, like 'Tell me about a time when...'
- Can you code an event loop related to promises?
- How would you design a real-time collaborative whiteboard like Miro?
- Tell me about a time when...
Frontend Software Engineer
Miro's hiring process is pretty standard. First, you'll chat with HR about your background and why you're interested. Then, there's a live coding test to see how you handle technical problems. After that, you'll have a system design interview to check out your architectural skills. Then you'll meet the team to make sure you're a good fit culture-wise. Finally, the hiring manager will talk with you about the role and your expectations before they extend an offer if everything checks out.
- Can you give a brief summary of your professional background?
- Write code for an AsyncTaskQueue that handles concurrency and runs tasks efficiently.

“Given a Runner class that takes a concurrency limit, implement the add method to queue and execute tasks, respecting the concurrency limit.”

Read reports →“Given the `taskRunner` with an `add` method, and a helper `logAfterDelay` function that takes a string and returns a promise resolving after a 2-second timeout, simulate adding multiple tasks with different delay logs (e.g., 'Delayed by 4', 'Delayed by 6'). The tasks should be added sequentially. Also, utilize the `getDelay` helper function which calculates the elapsed time since `startingTime` to log the actual delay in seconds within the `setTimeout` callback.”
