Colloquio
I was scheduled to meet with 4 different people in one morning and they each interviewed me separately. I would have preferred to meet with everyone in a group because I simply ended up repeating the same answers to each interviewer as everyone asked the same types of questions. Each of the interviewers was very nice and the overall experience was positive, but they were each from different departments leaving me with the impression that they didn't have a specific role they were looking to fill.

Colloquio
The hiring manager reached out to me and then asked me to put an invite on her calendar with a Google Hangout link she sent me. I thought it was odd that she was asking me, a candidate, to do the scheduling, which is her job. Also thought it was bizarre to do a video conference for a first conversation.
I spoke with the woman, who seemed like she had never spoken with a product manager in her life. She asked me silly questions like "are you familiar with agile," and nothing else really of consequence. A senior engineer joined the video conference halfway through and, as I was telling a work-related story, interrupted me with a barrage of questions and attacked my objectively legitimate answers. I found him to be incredibly arrogant and condescending. The company was clearly not a good fit for me, nor I a fit for them.

Colloquio
The initial communication was through a recruiter. Former co-workers from another company were now working at this company so I asked one of them to speak to the hiring manager and put in a good word for me. luckily he reported to hiring manager, so it pulled some weight.
I had a phone interview then individual in person interviews (all on same day) with the hiring manager, 2 peer level project managers, and the department's VP.
The hiring manager was direct about the pay range and brought it up in the interview. He also said they were prepared to make a decision by the end of the week as they had been interviewing for months already.
