"The recruiter was kind and well organized. The product sense question was unique and fun to solve. The execution question threw me through a loop. I assumed OpenAI carefully released models for safety reasons but was told they give the model to everyone immediately to test it, so I had to pivot my launch strategy at the last moment."

"I interviewed for two PM roles under ChatGPT, and I got in through a referral. The recruiter screen was short and very candid, but it was also a warning sign because she said the process changes constantly, and most of what she told me about the format ended up not matching reality. I then did two one-hour case interviews: one was a strong, practical discussion about how I would launch a new model in ChatGPT, and the other was chaotic after being canceled and rescheduled multiple times and then assigned to someone outside the team who seemed unclear on what he was testing. After those rounds, I was told I was not a fit for the search role, but they were still considering me for the growth role. Right now I am waiting to hear whether the final will be the old onsite panel in SF or the newer case-project-plus-presentation version."

"The process was recruiter screen, a 30-minute hiring manager call, a take-home on designing a free trial for ChatGPT Team, and then a four-round onsite. The unusual part was that they gave me the onsite behavioral questions ahead of time, which made me think the loop would be easier, but in reality the whole thing was extremely rigorous because almost all of the real evaluation happened in the follow-ups. I felt like every interviewer had very low tolerance for hand-wavy answers and wanted to see exactly how I thought, how I got alignment, and whether I had owned meaningful business outcomes end to end. I did not get the offer, and my big takeaway was that the literal job description matched my background pretty well, but the bar felt closer to a senior leader or GM-style operator willing to work as an IC."
