# Dropbox Technical Program Manager (TPM) Interview Guide

We provide this Aced guide for candidates preparing for Dropbox technical program manager interviews. The guide was updated a month ago by Dropbox candidates. Dropbox is described as having a strong team culture, a world-class product, technical complexity, and high-caliber teammates.

## Guide sections

## Interview stages

Dropbox TPM interviews typically have two rounds: a phone screen and an onsite interview.

### Phone screen

A recruiter or TPM manager conducts the phone screen to assess whether you should advance to the onsite interview. The questions are behavioral and focus on:

- Why you want to work at Dropbox
- Your interest in technical program management

To prepare, [review your resume](https://www.aced.io/resume?src=guide) and research Dropbox, including [Dropbox's company mission](https://www.dropbox.com/about).

### Onsite

The onsite Dropbox TPM interview consists of five or more interviews. Engineers and engineering managers ask both TPM-specific and engineering-specific questions. The guide provides further preparation guidance and examples of question types.

## Sample interview questions

Dropbox interview questions generally fall into several categories, with substantial overlap across the different interviews. The specific sample questions are available as member content.

### Member content
