      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Coursera

      Interview

      Interviewed by 6-7 people ranging from the Recruiter, Managers, Director and Executive Staff. Felt like I was able to genuinely connect with interviewers as individuals and get a sense of the team. While the interviewing process was challenging, it was also fun. There was a creative mindset among the interviewers that show thinking outside of the box. It was evident that Coursera would be a place where I could grow alongside people who are high performers with purpose.

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Coursera (San Diego, CA) in Jul 2021

      Interview

      It was a very long interview process, but at the same time it gives you the chance to get to know the company very well and ask a lot of questions. They are very insistent on the fact that it´s not only the company that needs to like the candidate, but also like wise. They include a case and role play interview with team members that try to make difficult questions for you to leave the role play. There was a recruiter that constantly did follow up and provided feedback during the process, which was very helpful and helped reduce anxiety.
