Software Engineer (Internship) Interview Experience - United Kingdom
Process
The HubSpot interview process was the most enjoyable of any company I applied to.
It starts with a coding challenge, which is actually a very practical task related to the work you will be doing. If you pass, you will have two one-hour interviews back-to-back. These consist of coding/algorithm questions and architecture questions.
During the interviewing process, both the recruiters and the interviewers made me feel comfortable at all times and facilitated breaks. They encouraged me to take a few minutes between interviews to grab some water and perhaps use the bathroom, which is something I might not have asked for myself but was actually quite needed.
After these two interviews, I received an email from the recruiter to schedule a call. During the call, they extended an offer.
Questions
The coding and architecture questions were your classic interview questions, where your knowledge of the fundamentals of data structures, algorithms, and software architecture was assessed.

HubSpot Work Experiences
- 5.0Internship at HubspotSoftware Engineer (Internship) • Current EmployeeCambridge, Massachusetts, United StatesAugust 17, 2021Pros: I was completely integrated into a team at HubSpot. I was able to work out of the same job board that the other developers were working on and directly impact the projects and goals the team had.Cons: I was the only intern on my team, and the issues that I was working on were independent projects. On top of this, the internship was remote, so it consisted of me working independently without much communication with others for the majority of the internship.
- 4.0Great place to workTechnical Lead • Current EmployeeDublin, Leinster, IrelandJune 28, 2022Pros: A flexible and nice company to work for. They have great tools and technologies.Cons: Communication between teams is hard. They try to pay as little as possible for people that look happy. Some areas lack direction and have loads of things to maintain.
- 5.0This company caresSenior Software Engineer • Current EmployeeRaleigh, North Carolina, United StatesJune 8, 2021Pros: As many others have noted, HubSpot has done a tremendous job of emphasizing good culture and working to make it a reality. It's also clear that the decision-makers care about the things they're talking about, whether they are business-related, social, or anything in between. Nothing is given lip service without the action to back it up, which is refreshing and needed.Cons: As a remote employee, it takes a bit more effort and intentionality to feel connected to the company mission and my team. It's more of a disadvantage of my own circumstances than the company, though. They've made every effort to make remote work a delightful experience. We're all still learning and growing as remote work becomes more prevalent.
