Recruiter Screen, Hiring Manager, three 1:1 PM Interviews (VP Product, Commerce PM, Growth PM), then a paid take home assignment (2-3 hours suggested) followed by a panel presentation interview with all interviewers plus a member from product design. This was hands down the best candidate experience I've had in some time. Which makes me that much more bummed I didn’t secure an offer. Jasmine stands out as a top-notch recruiter and made the process a delight from beginning to end. Such a refreshing contrast to this highly competitive job market where candidates get ghosted left and right. Also, the fact that Flodesk pays for the take home assignment is truly exceptional - the sentiment is appreciated and left me with such a positive impression of Flodesk. It’s such an effective differentiator for employers and left me wanting to go the extra mile in the interview process. Sadly for me, I went the extra mile in the wrong direction 😆 I had used a deck template that worked well for me in previous product interview presentations. I added visuals throughout my presentation with the intention of keeping the presentation fun and engaging. But I received feedback that the visual components were distracting from the content (valid but also subjective to Flodesk - I had not received this feedback before). Hence my biggest regret is not workshopping with the hiring manager as soon as I got the prompt. By the time we synced it was only to review my presentation rather than to prep by understanding what content will resonate best with the team. I would’ve been able to clarify all my assumptions and truly believe I would’ve had a different outcome. Tldr; Focus presentation purely on the content and solutions. Do not spend extra time creating wireframes or data workflows. Take the prompt very literally - answer the listed questions, develop thoughtful solutions, and avoid adding extra context. Hope this helps anyone going through the process now!
