Despegar.com Product Owner Interview Questions
& Process

Initial test: Logic, math, and business questions, with a minimum of correct answers required to move forward. HR: The lady joined 15 minutes late and was multitasking the whole call. The questions were pretty generic and she didn't show interest in my responses. Team Manager: Much more pleasant. We talked about my experience, career path, and interests. It also included business questions aimed at evaluating logical reasoning. The process was normal, although a bit long. I didn't advance to the next stages, but they told me that the following interviews had the same dynamic: analyzing live business cases with leadership members. In total, there would be about 5 or 6 interviews, I don't know if it's really worth it.

I had 5 interview instances for a product owner position and didn't get any feedback after the last one. All interviews (except the first with HR) were mainly based on 'logic' questions and practical cases, most of which weren't related to the role. I get the use of these kinds of exercises, but it's not necessary to evaluate these skills in every interview. You'd assume if you exceed expectations in the first one, the following should focus more on role-specific questions or experience. In the final interview (with the area's senior manager), there wasn't time to discuss my experience, going almost directly into these cases.

Test de lógica, entrevista preliminar, test de arquitectura de solución, y luego 4 entrevistas más. Cada vez que se avanzaba era con un puesto más alto. El puesto es parte de un programa de crecimiento dentro de despegar por lo que el proceso es más extenso y riguroso.
