Screen > Hiring Manager > Case study > Culture
Pretty straight forward process, but through the process the role title changed multiple times, ultimately the feedback at the end was the role is paused/we're not hiring for the role you've interviewed for. Speed of process was quite slow, with long gaps between completing a stage and getting any feedback.
From all the processes and interviews recently, thuis was the worst case study. Very broad and lacking specificity - was suggested as four hours, later said its probably more, realistically was close to 2 full days. Required a lot of research in the company, guessing at how internal processes might work, process mapping and providing hypothetical suggestions... Then a market research piece on trends in both payments and fincrime, THEN a product review to include creating prototypes and roadmaps.
Ultimately not a great candidate experience - and given the role was now paused/not hiring for this felt more like an expeditious fishing trip to try and get free ideas and insights.
PItched a 'very competitive' base salary that wouldn't be discussed until I did we got to the case round, just before the case found it it was significantly below market (25%-30%!) given experience and ownership. I've personally hired Senior PM's in their banding for a Director.
