Started with 12 tasks/challenges in total ranging from 30-60min each. Passed the challenges and went on to interview stage, 3 in total. First with HR testing alignment with culture and a small brain teaser. Second also with HR with more behavioural questions and a small challenge. Third with a product leader checking on experience with a short product challenge. Sent in 3 references as requested but did not receive an offer in the end. I was told during the feedback call that I lost marginally to other candidates and that they had limited capacity currently. They mentioned that they keep the listings open so as to not miss out on strong candidates but they may not have suitable capacity. HR was very responsive and clear throughout the process and whole process took 3 months.

Other Product Manager interview reviews for Bending Spoons
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Bending Spoons (Milan) in Apr 2026
Interview
Candidatura online, dopo un primo screening del cv si è sottoposti a task di logica abbastanza generici e non allineati alla job description.
Una perdita di tempo e non si ha la possibilità di contattare un responsabile delle risorse umane né altri membri dell'azienda.
In compenso la valutazione della candidatura è molto veloce.
The interview process started with an online assessment followed by a video interview. The interviewers asked both behavioral and role-related questions to understand my product thinking and problem-solving approach. The atmosphere was professional and friendly, and I spoke with two interviewers who were interested in learning about my experience and how I approach product decisions.
