Robinhood

Robinhood Product Manager (PM) Interview Guide

Robinhood generally will ask two product sense questions in your interview, and you'll meet with both an engineer and a designer to have a cross-functional-style interview.

This interview focuses on your product knowledge, creativity, instincts, and awareness.

Questions could focus on a product that you feel is a great product, why it’s a great product, and what you’d do if you were a PM or the CEO of that company. Other questions that could come up in this interview are looking at an existing Robinhood Product and figuring out how you’d evolve it. Your interviewer will be able to give you guidance along the way, although they will expect you to lead the conversation. In this interview it’s very important to have a structure in your thought process and to be able to revert back to your original idea / goal.

[Here is a list of product sense questions recently asked.](https://www.tryexponent.com/questions?role=pm&type=product-design)

While we have a full guide to product design questions in our course, one tip for these questions is to [always mention tradeoffs.](https://blog.tryexponent.com/the-key-to-a-successful-pm-interview-answer-tradeoffs/)

Product Sense Interview

Robinhood will match you with an engineer and a designer to conduct more behavioral-style interviews.

Being relaxed, calm, and confident is the key to success in these interviews. However, there are definitely parts of this interview you can prepare for. For instance, create [a story bank of experiences](/courses/tpm/behavioral-interviews-creating-story-bank) that you can use in the interviews, and practice some of these questions with a practice partner in our Slack Channel to get more confident and comfortable.

As you answer your interviewer’s questions, ask yourself if your responses include examples that show how you:
- Demonstrate initiative.
- Exhibit introspection and self-awareness.
- Can be open about your failures and talk through examples of what you’ve learned from them.
- Lead and support a team, including conflict management.
- Are passionate about what you’ve done.

Our most important tip? Don't interview without deeply understanding [Robinhood's mission](https://robinhood.com/us/en/support/articles/our-mission/) -
