Behavioral Technical Case Presentation

The interview process was great - at each stage, the interviewers were very clear about the role, the company, and also expectations of the job. Each person I interviewed with was smart, professional, and had a lot of knowledge about the space. They made themselves available for several follow-up calls after the interviews for questions and concerns. I also liked how intentional they are with hiring - they make sure you are a fit for an area within the company to set you up for success if you join. The stages were as follows - Initial Screen Call, Product/ Job Fit Interview, Analytical Case Study, Product Case Study.

Behavioral Technical Case Presentation

It was a multi-stage interview designed to gauge my product development thinking, rather than dwelling on past experience. The stages I went through were: first, a phone screen/intro call; then, a meeting with the Product Director; followed by a take-home case study and PRD presented in a panel with 3-5 PMs; next, a live analytics case study with a PM; then, a live product case study with another PM; after that, another meeting with the Product Director; a meeting with the Delivery Manager; and finally, a meeting with the Engineering Manager.
