I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at AllTrails (San Francisco, CA) in Sept 2022
Interview
I applied via LinkedIn, and had a phone screen with the Recruiting team about two weeks later. I then had a second round interview with the lead PM and the sr. designer on the team. I was not selected for a final round interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me about a feature that you worked on from inception to launch?
Tell me how you contribute to product strategy and how your prioritize tasks on a roadmap in your current role?
Initial interview was 30 minutes long and asked questions pertaining to the role and applicable knowledge. Also got in depth about the app and content. Was a fairly casual conversation to see if I would be a good fit for the role.
I applied through other source. The process took 4 months. I interviewed at AllTrails in Sept 2022
Interview
1. Recruiter Screening
2. Hiring Manager Interview
3. Interview with Designer
4. Final Round 6-part interview - 30 minute individual convos with tech lead, researcher, program manager, engineering manager, CPO, PM director.
All interviews were behavioral, no cases. Most of the interviews were just a few behavioral questions and then time for me to ask questions.
I felt the process lacked a bit of rigor.
Very good communication from recruiter throughout the process.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
tell me how you would approach annual planning, tell me about a time you worked with a designer, what's your ideal way to work with your program manager, etc.
Oddly few questions asking about actual products that I'd launched!
