Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at GoTo.
Product Manager
First there was an HR interview. Then I had a technical interview with the hiring manager about my product management background. After that, I spoke with two other Product Managers. These interviews focused on situational questions and questions about my past product management work experience.
- Can you describe your approach to product discovery challenges?
Product Manager
So it started with a recruiter call from HR for the initial screening, which was professional. Then I had an intro call with the hiring manager, which went well with standard questions. We then had a follow-up call where the hiring manager seemed very negative and uninterested, kept interrupting me, and didn't seem to care about my answers. Despite this, he asked for a third call with a business strategy presentation. I spent 3 days preparing, but then HR called to say they weren't moving forward, and the third interview never happened. It was very disappointing given the effort I put in, and I felt the process was handled poorly by LogMeIn. If you ask candidates to invest time, at least let them present their work.
- Can you tell me more about yourself?
- Could you elaborate on your relevant experience in product management?
- What are your weaknesses?
Product Manager
The interview experience was extremely positive. After the initial recruiter call, I had a phone screen with the hiring manager. He gave me a walkthrough of the product and his team, then let me walk through my product development process. I really enjoyed the conversation and was invited for an on-site interview. The 4-hour interview panel was with the Product Lead, Marketing Director, UX Director, Sr Director of Dev, Director of Dev, Sr Director of UX, and Sr Director of PM. I think all my interviews went well, except for one behavioral question: 'What would you do if someone told you they just do not want to work with you.'
- Can you describe your product development process from beginning to end?
- Tell me about a time you had to deliver bad news to management.
- Can you share an instance where you failed to deliver a product or feature on time?
