      Product Manager Interview

      Jul 1, 2011
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Google in Mar 2009

      Interview

      Phone screening is fairly aggressive, like making an attempt to demonstrate you're just not worthy of being there. That kind of attitude permeated the on-site interviewing as well. The "test" portion is mostly an effort to show that you could be joining this elite club, but only if you prove your worth. It came off as a bit intimidating and arrogant, but not insufferably so. Try to read through the sample questions on Business Insider and elsewhere on the web to get a sense of the problem-solving type questions you are going to face. While there might not be "wrong answers" to some of the open-ended problems, there is definitely an ability to shine or fizzle when you get the floor.

      Average interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Google (Kirkland, WA)

      Interview

      You would have to do a hiring assessment first, then a recruiter screening follows. First round interview with the hiring manager. Majorly product sense and product improvement. The questions were not direct though.

      Overall a lot of steps to the interview process. Talked to different people and had opportunities to ask questions. Many different stages which made it a lengthy process overall. Wasn't too bad.
