Smartsheet Product Manager interview questions

Screen + PM from Project screening was smooth + PM was specific questions - lots of questions about my experience - quick turnaround they wanted a case study in the third options

Began with recruiter, moving to hiring manager and then a loop with PMs, design, and engineering. Actual interviews during the loop were heavy on white boarding, which was fun! I genuinely got the sense everyone was intelligent and cared a lot about the product experience. In short, I got a great impression of the product team from my interviews. After the interview process I was told I did well during my interviews and they wanted to place me in a PM role, although they weren’t sure which role because of changing budget timelines. This is where the process broke down. Over the next few weeks I was left hanging. My point of contact was through the internal recruiter. They setup meetings which they missed, sent emails which they didn’t respond too, and was generally poor at communication. In the end, the recruiter came back and said they didn’t have a role for me and I was welcome to apply again through the normal intake process in the future. I told the recruiter I figured this was the case early due to their poor communication and shared my frustration with the process post loop. In summary, probably an amazing company to work for but pretty confusing and demoralizing if you’re a candidate stuck in limbo.
