Colloquio
1. Had 2 phone calls with hiring manager and software development manager.

3. Was asked to do a 5th round - casual chat with hiring manager's boss.
4. Did not hear from recruiter for more than 2 weeks.
5. Then was asked to answer some more follow up questions from their immigration department in continuation to what they had asked before the interview.

I wasted 3 business days PTO from my current job to interview with them.

Domanda 1
Nothing too difficult. General PM questions around product strategy, application design and software architecture.

Colloquio
Not a great experience with interviews taking 1 month to complete. Despite ongoing communication, the role did not move forward, reportedly due to approval constraints. The overall experience highlights a gap in aligning internal approvals before progressing candidates to advanced stages.
Clearer communication and better alignment internally would improve the candidate experience

Questions on Project Experience and Thought process

The interview process is grueling and I get why people do it but its more awareness, know that you'll spend an entire day and meet several people, so it's important to be mentally and physically prepared. Eat a good breakfast but not heavy stay hydrated. This was just for a PM role it's their standard process I imagine executive level is another thing altogether

Tell me about a time you didn't agree with someone who was a stakeholder on your project and how did you handle that?
Very smooth, thoughtful interview process. It showed the recruiter really cared what I had to contribute and asked great followup clarifying questions. Would definitely recommend everyone try an interview with them even if it doesn't pan out.
