A friend of mine passed on my resume to the hiring manager and the recruiter for this position. The recruiter then set up an initial phone screening scheduled for the week after.
The recruiter and I went through my experience and asked a few surface technical question, such as my definition of Agile, what are KPIs, tell me about a product you've built, etc. After that, I was set up for another and by the week after, I had another phone screen with the Hiring Manager. This conversation was similar to the one above, but also provided a clearer description of the division I would be applying to, as well as needs of the PO. After passing both phone screens, I was invited then for an onsite interview at Argo Group offices in New York City.
For the onsite interview, I had a 4.5-hour panel discussion with 5 different members of the Argo Digital Group. The first individual interview was a typical Product Sense exercise. For the subsequent rounds, most of the questions were behavioral and leadership based, with a strong focus on learning about my previous experience and views on Product. For this interview, the recruiter said to dress business professional which was a mismatch for the position I was applying to.
A few days later, I was asked to come back again, but this time I would be presenting a product case to an interview panel of three Argo Digital members. The recruiter sent me the prompt and said I would have 90 minutes to present my case to the panel. I made my presentation of the case where I was peppered with behavior and leadership questions, which I felt were fair for the position.
After the second onsite interview, I emailed the recruiter to thank the members of the Argo Digital for their time, but the recruiter never emailed back. A week and a half later, I emailed the recruiter again but never responded to my email. As a candidate, I felt insulted to have spent so much time during the interview to not even receive a "thanks, but no thanks" email.
