The first interview was with an HR person. The interview started with him listening to my job history. Halfway through the interview, he asked about salary. When I said what I was making, he said that they couldn't match that and asked if there was flexibility. He quoted a number that was 20% less than than what I currently make and said that was the upper end of the range. At the end of the interview, he asked if I wouldn't mind doing a homework assignment. He said that the short homework assignment takes most people "about 4 hours to do" and could be done "in multiple evenings". I probably spent 6-7 hours writing it up and thought the end result was pretty good. The next day I was emailed a boiler plate rejection letter without explanation. I'm curious if other people had similar results to what I experienced.

There is a data point that indicates that there are more Uber drop-offs at the airport than pick-ups from the airport. Why is this the case and what would you do within the product to change that?
Recruiter, Hiring Manager, Jam (which is too much work), Peer, Engineering, Data, and Skip Level.
A lot of people you need to impress and need to align. They seem to be very afraid of pull the trigger and make a decision.

Mostly about past experiences. Also, some product sense and product strategy questions in their specific area. Very repetitive.

It was okay until the "Jam" session. Recruiter was very responsive and nice until not anymore after the hiring manager decide to no move forward.
Jam session was very confusing and misleading, with barely no questions, no guidance jeopardizing the flow.

The process starts with the HR screening interview, followed by an interview with the hiring manager, followed by a take-home assignment you are given for a week (7 days), and followed 2 or 3 more interviews

Lots of behavioral "tell me about the time when" questions
