Before you interview, it helps to know what the process will look like.

Before you interview, it helps to know what the process will look like.

Starts with a recruiter phone screen

They mostly go over your experience and prep you for the rest of the process

Initial phone screen

Depending on the company, 1-2 interviews usually over phone/video

You'll probably get asked a product sense or execution question (more on this on the next page)

Final onsite

Depending on the company, 3-5 interviews usually in person (note: with COVID-19, all virtual)

You'll get asked questions around product sense, execution, and behavioral / leadership (more on this below)

Most companies focus on just the above 3 areas, but this is not guaranteed

A few (aka Google) also ask

technical questions⁠

⁠

Some will ask “product strategy” questions, which are slightly different but mostly similar to product sense questions

Especially as you get more senior, many will have "cross-functional" interviews with engineering, design, operations, etc. to make sure you'd work well alongside them
