I applied through university. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at IXL Learning (New York, NY) in Oct 2015
Interview
They came to my campus to recruit and I signed my name on their list. Within the end of the day, they offered me either a phone interview or a campus interview. I didn't have time for the campus interview so I took the phone interview.
They asked me basic questions of my background, then a riddle which I had to explain my thought process as I was solving it. They told me they'd contact me within three days; they did informing me I didn't move past to the second phase.

Question 1
They asked me a riddle (the one about jelly beans and how many jelly beans I'd have to eat minimum to decide which jar is which).
I applied online. I interviewed at IXL Learning (Raleigh, NC) in Jan 2026
Interview
Everyone was friendly in the interview process, however, it was a long process from start to finish. Initial interview with a recruiter, then a phone interview with hiring manager. After that, they will offer an in person interview typically.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at IXL Learning (San Mateo, CA) in Apr 2017
Interview
I had an interview, they asked the typical interview questions and the same jelly bean riddle that everyone else said. Then I had to do a design assignment, which I had a week to complete. It was actually a bit of work and took me about the whole week to complete, with the fact that I'm a student with a part time job.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at IXL Learning
Interview
I interviewed with a member of the product management team. There wasn't a brain teaser. Questions are more leaning towards previous experience, projects, and how you would approach a design.
