      Operations Manager Interview

      Jul 23, 2019
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Lime in Jul 2019

      Interview

      I applied in April and heard back for an interview in mid-June. I went through 5 rounds that lasted 5 weeks. First interview was with recruiter, second round was a 2-hour online data analytics test (you need to know pivot tables and maybe consider having someone help you as it's time-sensitive), third round was a call with the hiring manager, fourth round was a presentation where you have 48 hrs (or 3 days depending on if you decide to do as the recruiter says in her email or the official instructions say in the attachment lol) to address 3 topics (deployment plan of scooters in your city, hiring, management). Then last round is 4 back-to-back interviews with Operations Managers from other locations (generic interviews, "tell me about a time when you had to make an unpopular decision and other questions from 1996 interview handbooks") and your hiring manager (this interview focuses on your presentation). I have to mention that nowhere in the process they include bringing the candidate to the office to meet face-to-face, something not very smart in my opinion. Overall, I would not recommend Lime to anyone since it's a company with an unproven business model that grows faster than they should in order to return the massive funding they have received back to their shareholders some day. I went through it because I wanted to explore the possibility of remaining in my city (I was back for vacation) and wanted to see how much they would offer in terms of compensation. I was not impressed by neither the level of the people in the company, at least the 6 people that I spoke to, nor the process itself. Most importantly I should note that they emailed me at 7:30PM on a FRIDAY, asking me to start working on the presentation ASAP and have it returned to her within 48hrs (by Sunday night)! To make things worse, they stated I should not ask any questions but the instructions they sent me were a bad copy/paste from other markets (probably) as they were mistakenly mixing between different products in the prompt and had typos. Overall, this seemed more like a blue-collar job than a white-collar job. Interviewers were impersonal and did not ask a single question about my background/past experience, giving me the impression that they had no idea what they were looking for. The end: 3 days after the final set of interviews I got an email from the recruiter letting me know of the rejection as well as that «competition for this role was really strong and we had to make difficult choices between many high-caliber candidates.». I emailed back the recruiter asking for feedback (since I had committed about 20 hours for the presentation, 2 hours for the analytics test, and about 5-6 hours of interview prep), they didn't even have the courtesy to respond and decline, not even that. To be honest, given my experience and the information I had gathered from friends of friends who worked there I wouldn't have accepted an offer anyway unless the money was crazy good, something that according to what I have learned is not the case. Also, for an Operations Manager role, you work out of a warehouse, you have to be connected 24/7, there are no smart people to learn from (no offense to Mechanics and Ops Specialists), and most importantly, upward mobility is wishful thinking. Lime scooters are very unsafe (I would feel bad if some kid died on it while I was the Ops Manager in that city) and no, this company is not the new Uber. Maybe the cheap and wannabe version of Uber.

      Question 1

      Assume there are no scooters in your downtown area and your boss is telling you 100 scooters are arriving in 7 days, where would you deploy them and why?

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Lime (Lisbon, Lisbon District)

      Interview

      The interview process was thorough, involving multiple rounds of questions across various departments. I was even asked to visit the warehouse in person. After all the time and effort, I was rejected without receiving any offer or clear feedback.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      One of the key things they asked me was which KPIs I track to measure operational efficiency. They seemed very focused on understanding how I evaluate and improve performance across different areas.
