I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at GirnarSoft (Mumbai) in Jun 2015
Interview
Interview was scheduled by Consultancy and it took around a month or 2 on getting final decision.All the rounds were telephonic
1. First Round - Was general discussion, where background, current profile and past profile was discussed, along with few deep diving session on the projects i worked on.Along with an assignment which was given for completion.
2.Second Round - Same repeat about the first round, discussion on assignments and somewhat of stress interview on the situation i been put into
Post that HR was very keen on closing the position the same day, after first 2 rounds, during salary negotiations the expectations were not matching. So third round was scheduled with Product Head
3.Third Round - Last for 10min max, no discussion related to assignment a cube color puzzle, and thats it.
Got offered from Cardekho, a mere 10-15% hike on my current CTC. Negotiated with HR on the same and she was suppose to get back in a 2-3 days. a reminder mail was sent, post that after a week or 2. I got a mail from Cardekho that they cant go ahead with the package am expect.
Overall it was a good experience with the Product team, but HR took long time in taking decision or conveying decisions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
As a Product Manager, how you will get a job done from internal customers ? Considering you didn't head any verticals ?
The process took 1 day. I interviewed at GirnarSoft (London, England)
Interview
The interviewer actually rescheduled the interview 4 times.
He sounded very rude from the word go.
All he was looking at was a google analytics
reporting experience and didn't really felt like a product management interview expect for one design question for that too he had his own idea of approach and insisted to think for a solution on the same line .
Didn't really felt like he had any intent of hiring or listening , never really had such a bad experience where in the feedback was really harsh .
Good luck!! Hiring the right candidate
