I applied in-person. I interviewed at Databricks (Singapore)
Interview
HR Screen > Manager Interview.. The first 15 minutes felt normal. Standard questions about my background, why I was interested in the role, and my experience with product roadmaps. Then things took a sharp turn.
Instead of asking about my leadership philosophy or how I'd approach their specific challenges, the interviewer began drilling down into the proprietary methodologies my current company uses... I felt I was taken for advantage as the interviewer tend to search for information as we're competitors. Not something I would expect from a brand like Databricks, very disappointing.
