Case Presentation
The whole experience felt chaotic and frustrating. First, I was rejected after stage 2, only to be contacted later and asked to re-enter the process. While I appreciated the opportunity to continue, it created confusion about how structured the hiring process actually is. Second, the case study felt excessive and unusually specific. I was asked to solve what appeared to be a real, live business problem the company is facing — specifically how HelloFresh could compete with Gousto’s offering of 100+ recipes. Candidates were expected to develop a fairly detailed solution. After presenting once, I was then asked to present the same case again as if to the CEO, with the goal of “convincing them” to see my “stakeholder management skills”. This felt unusual given that the exercise had already been completed and the team in question had not managed to convince the CEO of this. Ultimately I was rejected again after the second presentation. Case studies can be useful in interviews, but this one felt more like consulting on a real problem than an assessment exercise. Combined with the back-and-forth in the process, the experience came across as disorganised and unnecessarily demanding for candidates.

I had a 30min Zoom call scheduled with the recruiter. The recruiter didn't show up for 15mins, so I emailed them saying I had to leave for another call soon. They called me on my phone about 2mins after my email and we did the call over the phone. It was really rushed and they tried to finish it within the remaining time (just over 10mins left). Then they rejected me. It was a terrible experience, I asked to reschedule but it felt like I was just a task on their checklist.

Behavioral Technical Case Presentation
This was one of the best and most transparent candidate experiences I've had. They provided really detailed feedback at every step, were quick and professional in setting up interviews, and generally made the whole thing feel easy. The interviewers were all super respectful, engaging, and clearly knew their stuff and had lots of industry experience. The questions felt really relevant to product management and leadership. I think other companies could learn a lot about hiring for Product Management roles from HelloFresh. It was a competitive process overall, and everyone involved really pushed to get the best out of me.
