Eyeview Interview Questions
& Process

I applied online and about a week later, I had my first interview with a recruiter. Then I met with the Director of Campaign Management for a 30-minute call where she went into detail about the position. The third interview was with another team member, which was a great conversation and gave me a good sense of how we'd collaborate. The last interview was with the SVP, but we had some technical difficulties at the start with the video chat. I didn't feel the same connection with them as with the others, but I tried to emphasize why I'd be a good fit. After sending a thank-you note, I didn't hear back, so I assume I didn't get the job. Everyone I spoke with seemed like great people to work with.

So, the recruiter totally missed our scheduled call, which was a bummer. But after that, the interview process itself was pretty formal and actually quite pleasant. They asked some easy questions. Then there was a follow-up on-site interview where I was supposed to meet with both the product and marketing managers, but I only ended up meeting with the product manager. They asked some relevant questions and posed some scenarios. There was also this unprompted design 'test' – done verbally. The questions during this 'test' got really aggressive, which felt kind of amateur and uncomfortable. The whole vibe from management felt off, and I don't think I'd want to work with that kind of personality.

I had an initial phone screen with HR. Then I went onsite to meet with the hiring manager and CPO. After that, I had a phone call with the lead data scientist in Chicago. Finally, I had another onsite to meet with the VP and SVP of product management and supply chain. The whole interview process wasn't super technical, it was more about experience and if I was a good fit. After all the interviews, HR called me about 3 hours later saying I was the top candidate and would get an offer pending company approval. But, 2 days later, I didn't get the offer. HR did ask about my salary expectations, and I told her what I was getting from my other offers. Maybe they couldn't match it and decided not to offer me the job.

I applied through the company website. First, I chatted with a recruiter over email and then had a phone screen with another HR person. After that, I was supposed to have a 1:1 with the Director of Product, but they were traveling, so we rescheduled for the next week. On the interview day, the Director was nice and to the point. They asked some general questions about my past experience but didn't seem super engaged. Most of the interview involved me designing an MVP for an online betting platform, which felt like a good exercise. I was given a few constraints but a lot of freedom. I had about 40 minutes, during which I outlined the main features and started working on the login screen and subsequent screens. I was working mostly by myself. When the time was up, the Director returned and asked about the UI/UX post-login. They asked a good question that highlighted a missing piece in the bet creation flow — I realized I needed to add options for outcomes. Then, the Director asked some standard interview questions like 'What surprised you most about my questions?', 'What did you think I was going to ask but didn't?', and 'What would your former boss say is your worst trait?'. They said I did 'great' and mentioned a second round with more of their team. I asked what they thought was missing from my resume, and they mentioned Ad Tech, which I felt showed they didn't really understand my previous four-year work experience, so I tried to address that concern.
