Interview
Really good! The company really wants to make sure that the people they hire understand the culture and believe in the vision of the company! That’s something that’s important to me when I’m looking for a job. They are honest about expectations, what the position involves, and asked interesting (and somewhat unusual, but fun) questions. I’ve been to several job interviews, and this company stands out with its interview process, it’s modern and keeps up with the present time! I strongly recommend taking the chance to apply, even if only to practice job interviews!

Interview
I applied for the Product Manager – Financial Products role in March 2025 and was promptly contacted by the Talent Acquisition team for the first step: an introductory video call. The conversation went smoothly — I was able to share my experience, ask questions, and gain a clear understanding of the role and recruitment process. During the call, I was asked how I would approach a position more junior than my current role as Head of Product. I explained that I was looking for a broader organisation with greater complexity and global impact, where I could contribute my expertise while continuing to challenge myself professionally.
The second step — a video interview with the hiring manager — was scheduled quickly due to my progress in another ongoing process. That discussion also went well, and we spoke about the next step: a case study presentation. The hiring manager mentioned I would be receiving the assignment soon. My seniority was brought up again, and I reiterated my reasons for pursuing the role: the product, scale, and international reach of the company aligned with what I was looking for in my next challenge.
After several days of waiting for the case study, I followed up, and unexpectedly received a brief rejection. The explanation was that the hiring manager wasn’t sure I was the right fit and didn’t want to take up my time, especially as I was involved in other processes. I asked for further feedback for personal development but didn’t receive a response.
Overall, the experience left a rather disappointing impression. While I understand that fit is important, it felt as though a decision was made prematurely — without giving me the chance to demonstrate my skills through the case study or explore my potential further via references, which might have provided a more complete picture of my motivation and capabilities. The process felt unfinished, and the lack of feedback added to that feeling.
That said, I wish the team all the best in finding the right person for the role and continued success ahead.
