      Product Manager Interview

      3 Jun 2022
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Tbilisi
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Filestage (Tbilisi) in Jun 2022

      Interview

      The interview process is organized very well, on paper. But in fact, the company has you chasing them on all interview stages. They expect you to invest a week to prepare for two tasks, and then can't spare 30 minutes to actually properly review the submission. Here are the details if you need them: First stage is the general interview. Nobody showed up on the call and didn't warn me about it either, so I had to follow up myself. Well, stuff happens, we rescheduled. This time everything went according to expectations. We even met one more time after that to address questions that I still had unanswered which I appreciate. The next stage is a test assignment which actually includes two (!) tasks. Each requires a presentation and a video to be recorded. I invested a week to prepare the required content, and aimed to be very thorough with my approach with both tasks. I sent the completed assignment in time, and was promised to get feedback in a day. A week passed. I had to remind about myself. Only after that I got an answer. The feedback was: "You weren't concise enough for this kind of task, and experiments are lacking UX considerations". The problem is, nobody actually watched the video and the conclusions were clearly driven from the presentation which is only 50% of the content. How do I know? Because Product Managers are used to rely on analytics, that's how. The depth of view of my video is 17 seconds. Nobody from the team watched it. Otherwise they would know that I went over each experiment in 3 minutes on average, which is very concise in my opinion. In addition, I specifically addressed the risks in user experience associated with the experiment that I suggested, and explained why this wouldn't actually be a problem. I even proposed alternatives that would completely negate that. It'not clear to me why the team bothers requesting this type of assignment which is very time consuming from the applicant`s side, if they don't spare the effort to even open the video. If there are specific standards, they should be specified in the task upfront. Otherwise, I was left with the impression that they don't really care about the process or the candidate.

      Product Manager Interview

      6 May 2024
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Filestage in Apr 2024

      Interview

      I was very fortunate to have gotten an exceptional candidate experience from the start. Robbie (Head of People), has been very personal and attentive throughout the process and kept to the expectations that he laid out. The task was somewhat long / took some time and even though they said I did an exceptional job, I still wish they gave me more feedback to work with, I think overall it came down to timing as well, so submit your take home task as soon as you can not to be at the end of the line when it comes to the next rounds. Kudos to their talent process and experience, big well done!

      Question 1

      Why do you want to join Filestage? What do you know about the company? Tell me about your past experience that relates to this role? Where are you based? Is it fine that this is a contractor role / have you worked as a contractor before? (Filestage does not have entities anywhere besides Germany and US) How do you work with people remotely? Have you before?
