Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Opendoor.
Product Manager
The interview process started with a recruiter call, lasting about 30 minutes. Following that, I had a 30-minute session with the hiring manager. Initially, the HM contacted me via email right after the recruiter call, but then there was a period of silence. He eventually reached out again to schedule the interview. On the interview day, the HM was more than 5 minutes late, seemed rushed, and gave the impression he had already made a decision about the role that didn't involve me. The overall impression was disorganization and difficulty in following the conversation. We went over my background in detail, and then he surprised me with a product case estimation question. I managed to answer the main idea, but he also provided the answer, leading to a circular discussion until I realized my approach wasn't entirely wrong. It wasn't a great interview experience.
- Could you give me a summary of your career path?
- Looking back, what would you change about your career decisions?
- Tell me about your experience.
Product Manager
It started with a recruiter call, then a hiring manager call, and then a virtual onsite. I liked that they gave feedback to improve on. The case study was tedious and quite technical. They also tested some technical knowledge like SQL and service design.
- Describe a situation where your initial hypothesis turned out to be incorrect, and explain how you managed that situation.
Product Manager
The interview process was a bit unusual, especially during the Manager Q&A, but we continued with a positive attitude. What really caught me off guard was that in the last 5 minutes, the interviewer sent over some Math ACT questions, which made me wonder about their relevance to the job. Honestly, I didn't solve them correctly until after the interview when I had a chance to calm down and think it through. It's puzzling why managers sometimes try to stump candidates instead of focusing on the skills needed to perform the job effectively.
- Could you share an experience of how you managed customer feedback?
- There were some Math ACT questions asked.
