Glean interview preparation

Walk into Glean prepared.
Know what it looks for.

Glean builds an enterprise AI platform that connects a company's knowledge, people and permissions across 275+ tools, then uses that context to power search, an AI assistant and autonomous agents. Founded in 2019 by ex-Google and ex-Facebook engineers, it passed $300M ARR in May 2026 and is valued at $7.2B. Glean interviews are known for a hiring-manager round that probes ownership and "why Glean specifically," LeetCode-medium coding, a search-and-permissions system design round, and a two-hour practical build that quietly tests whether you reach for AI tools, so behavioral prep here means pairing concrete stories with a real grasp of the company's context-layer thesis.
