I applied online. I interviewed at Dropbox in Jul 2026
Interview
They contacted me via LinkedIn. Their job posting says "or equivalent experience" at the degree part. But just to be sure I asked the hiring manager if they REALLY hire people without any university degree (also I have copy pasted the job posting that says YES)... and then the recruiter responded after few days with a strong NO. Not having a degree is an instant rejection he said and he rejected me. Anyway as they already sent me their online test, just out of curiosity I had a look on it.

Question 1
So basically there were 5 coding tasks and you had overall 90 minute to solve them.
And I can tell, all the tasks require one by one at least 60 minutes to solve. I realised instantly how ridiculous is this. These tasks were represented as big fixing, feature implementing, etc kind of situations. You have a codebase, a description and that's it, figure it out bro in 18 minutes.
Dropbox’s frontend developer interview process includes a recruiter screen, coding assessment, multiple technical and behavioral interviews focusing on JavaScript, UI design, and problem-solving, followed by hiring committee review and offer decision.
