Product Manager Interview Experience
Interview process
Overall, my interview experience was excellent. The recruiter promptly provided all the necessary details, clearly explained each stage of the interview loop, and outlined how the rating and hiring-decision processes work. The entire process was well-structured and transparent. I understood that I received three “Strong Hire” ratings and one “No Hire,” with the single negative rating determining the final outcome. This was difficult to understand because I felt that particular interview was one of my strongest. Also, there seemed to be a disconnect between the interviews and the rejection feedback. The interviews focused primarily on general skills, and I was not asked many detailed questions about the relevant domains. Nevertheless, the feedback cited a lack of domain expertise as a key concern. It would have been helpful if the interviews had explored domain knowledge more thoroughly, giving me a fair opportunity to demonstrate my experience in those areas.

Interview tips
I would recommend preparing thoroughly for every stage of the interview loop. Practice common interview questions available on well-known platforms and review the role’s core skills in depth. I would also strongly suggest studying the relevant domain, as domain expertise may be considered in the final hiring decision even if it is not explored extensively during the interviews.
Company culture
What stood out to me was the company’s commitment to a fair and structured interview process. It appeared to be less susceptible to individual bias than many other processes in the market, with clear evaluation criteria and a consistent approach across the interview stages.
