Interview questions [1]
Question 1
tell me about a product that you think could be improved.
OK, nothing to brag about, clear discussion of the past experience, asking about how did you navigate difficulties , what is the starter to build networking and what are the tool so product management
I had 5 rounds of 45 min interviews. Not super memorable very straightforward product interview case questions. People were nice, but no behavioral. HM seemed toxic and wanted someone to commit whole life to role.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at LinkedIn (San Francisco, CA)
Interview
Made it to final rounds with VP. Didn’t get offer. Recruiter followed up, interviewed for another role and received offer after a few days. Process was pretty standard with product strategy questions. You do interview with a specific area so anticipate questions related to the area as well.
