      Software Developer Interview

      Jun 3, 2022
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Paris
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Cloudflare (Paris) in May 2022

      Interview

      As read about all the negative attitude of recruiters of Cloudflare in Glassdorr, I had the same experience. I had initial discussion with the Hiring Manager and I was told that I have to go through HackerRank online test. But as a typical CloudFlare recuitment attitute I did not recieve any mail for HackerRank test, and neither got any further response. It was my fault to proceed with the interview process even after reading so many negative reviews about the company culture and hiring attitude. Simply blacklist such companies with bad attitudes. Wasted my time as I already have interviews lines up with many companies including FAANGs.

      Software Engineer Interview

      Apr 8, 2026
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Austin, TX
      Declined offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Cloudflare (Austin, TX) in Mar 2026

      Interview

      Started with a 30-minute conversation with the hiring manager. He was amazing, very friendly, and the questions were mostly resume-based. The next round was a 1-hr TPS interview with an engineering manager. It was a HackerRank-style question (not typical LeetCode), but practicing LeetCode definitely helped in choosing the right data structures. After that, I had a conversation with the recruiter to discuss salary, location, next steps, etc. The interview loop consisted of 5 rounds: 30 mins: Culture fit (behavioral questions), 45 mins: PM interview (behavioral, focused on collaboration with PMs), 45 mins: Debugging round (debugging a working system - fairly easy), 1 hour: System design (medium to hard), 45 mins: AI-assisted coding round Overall, all the interviewers were great to interact with and very supportive throughout the process. The AI-assisted round was similar to debugging, but they expected me to “vibe-code” using AI to identify issues and fix bugs or add features. After clearing these rounds, the final steps included an office visit and a 15-minute call with a CXO.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Tell me about a project you worked on recently and what were the challenges? Tell me about a time you made a mistake or failed. Why Cloudflare and why this team? How do you approach building a feature when you don't fully understand user needs?
