Netflix Mid-Level UX Designer Interview Preparation Guide

Netflix's interview process for design roles typically spans 4-6 weeks from initial recruiter screening to final decision. The process begins with a recruiter screen to confirm fit and alignment on role expectations, followed by a design phone screen to assess design thinking fundamentals. The onsite loop (concentrated in 1-2 days) consists of multiple rounds: a live design exercise under time pressure, a product thinking or systems design discussion, behavioral/culture-fit interviews focused on Netflix's values of freedom and responsibility, and collaborative rounds with cross-functional team members. Netflix emphasizes clear communication, autonomous decision-making, data-driven reasoning, and your ability to iterate and embrace feedback.
