I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at BetterUp (San Francisco, CA) in Jan 2020
Interview
Initial call with potential Manager, portfolio review with 2 designers, "take home assignment" focused on how I see my work (not a design challenge), diversity of conversations ranging from engineering to values to design specifics. And finally, two conversations with the executives including one of the founders.

Question 1
Describe a time when you demonstrated stakeholder, describe a project you are especially proud of
You have an initial call with the hiring manager where you learn more about the company/role. The second round was a series of calls with various members of the team (developer, product owner, hr, designer). The session with the designer was the longest and it was a case study review.. Throughout our 1hr long session, the designer asked me less than 5 questions. My interview ended after the second round due to certain design skills not being as present throughout my case study review. This was odd to me as the interviewer never asked to see more of that particular skill in my portfolio work (or ask about it at all…) Overall, it felt like they made way too many assumptions and didn’t ask me enough questions during the review with the designer.

Question 1
Tell me about a time you disagreed with your product owner, how did you resolve it?
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at BetterUp in Mar 2022
Interview
Very lengthy. 6 interviews in total which equaled to about 3 hours of my time. It was a mix of interviews with team members from the product and engineering team and interviews with people from other areas of the company.
I was not selected for the role and was not provided with any feedback explaining why. After 6 interviews, I expect to receive constructive feedback, especially from a company who’s in the professional and personal development industry. Most companies provide written feedback or even offer a short feedback session via video call.
