Initial Screening: The recruiter called and we discussed my role compatibility amongst other things
Phone Interview: This involved discourse on product management fundamentals and hypothetical scenarios (to test my ability to think on my feet I guess lol).
On-site Rounds: The on-site was a mix of case studies, problem-solving, and behavioural questions. I won’t lie, this part was tough. If I didn’t use product alliance prep it might have been tougher. I also did mock interviews with anyone who would help me.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
• How would you improve a Google product?
• Tell me about a time you used data to make a decision.
Very self-driven, first of multiple rounds, where I had to take the initiative to arrive at the problem, constraints, approach, solutions, tradeoffs and reasoning behind it in a matter of 30 minutes.
You would have to do a hiring assessment first, then a recruiter screening follows. First round interview with the hiring manager. Majorly product sense and product improvement. The questions were not direct though.
Overall a lot of steps to the interview process. Talked to different people and had opportunities to ask questions. Many different stages which made it a lengthy process overall. Wasn't too bad.
