I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Medallia (Ciudad de Mexico) in Jun 2026
Interview
I got a first interview, later to get a coding assesment. After reading it, it looked like there was an error in one of the questions. In particular, it was asking to detect an error which I believed didnt exist. Maybe I missed something, but I checked it several times and gave an example of it working.
The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Medallia in Oct 2022
Interview
Scheduling / Informing / Interview Automation all seems well Organized & well communicated via email. There are 3 round of interview first HR Round with 2 subsequent technical round. Technical Interview round covers Job Requirements relevant questions from basics to advanced. Practical Round covers code though process of critical problem
I applied through other source. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Medallia (New York, NY)
Interview
1. Initial call with recruiter. Filling up some forms before interview is scheduled.
2. 1 hr technical zoom interview with codepad share. After initial introduction you're given a real time code task. You're given a sample of incomplete code based on real case.
3. One part of the task is to implement a simple function and other task is to remove the bugs from existing code and propose modifications to code. Interviewer may guide you in what is expected. e.g edge cases, optimization etc.
Interview was more focused on Java. It was not standard leetcode interview. It would be helpful if recruiter could clarify on nature of interview. Though the interview task was really simple, the expectations from the candidate are not made clear. I didn't make past the 1st round even after implementing and running the code with correct results. So I may not be a good judge of what they're looking for in candidate.
Better clarify the expectations of the task from interviewer before you start coding. Make a list and check that list through the interview, this will improve your chances of getting second call.
