Associate Product Manager Interview Experience

I interviewed for an entry-level APM role, and the biggest thing that stood out was how specific the questions were to Roblox itself. I had a product design round, a behavioral round, and a system design round, and the product and system questions both kept tying back to the Roblox ecosystem instead of feeling like generic PM cases. The process also took a lot of preparation because they had a platform where applicants practiced with each other, which created this weird mix of camaraderie and competitiveness. I made it to the last round and felt like I was a finalist, but the waiting afterward was rough and very opaque. Some finalists seemed to get more calls and more one-on-one contact than others, and I never felt like they were transparent about where people stood. My behavioral interviewer was also really rude, and overall I ended up rejected.
