Product Manager Interview Experience
I basically treated this interview like a syllabus. I found the common Meta PM question bank online, practiced it in mocks, and most of the actual questions came straight from that same list.
Interview process
I interviewed for a Product Manager role, and the process was two 45-minute phone screens followed by three onsite rounds. The phone screens were product sense and product execution, and the onsite repeated those with one extra leadership round. What stood out to me was how syllabus-driven the whole thing felt. I found a big list of common questions online, prepared answers, did mocks, and most of the questions I got were from that same list. I would call the difficulty about a 5 out of 10 because there were basically no surprises if you prepared well.

Interview tips
Prepare well and practice a lot. I would literally search for this company's PM questions, build answers for that question bank, and do mock interviews on those exact prompts because most of what I got was from that list. This process felt much more about preparation and polish than handling curveballs.
Company culture
This felt like a very standardized PM interview process. I got the sense they are using a pretty repeatable bank of product sense, execution, and behavioral questions, because most of what I saw was already out there online. To me, that means they are not really trying to surprise you. They are checking how well you structure and deliver answers on familiar PM problems.
Questions asked
Overview
The onsite product sense round was basically the same style as the phone screen: one prompt and a couple of classic follow-ups. It felt very predictable if you had already practiced these kinds of PM questions.

How do you improve it?
How do you measure the success of this product?
I treated it like a standard product sense question and then extended my answer into improvements and success metrics when they pushed there. Nothing about the structure was surprising.
