I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Mastercard (New York, NY) in Feb 2020
Interview
Two conversations with current product managers about their roles and what product management entails. They also asked questions about my background and experiences. Both were conducted via phone calls and lasted roughly 30 minutes.
Kept me waiting for a month after the recruiter screening then withdrew the role. Appreciate situations change but had to chase three times for an answer. Also cancelled interview with the team at the last moment.

Interview
I was in a previous interview process where they didn’t get back to me in 1,5 months, then I was called saying that unfortunately I didn’t get that position but they would like me to interview for a different one. I did 4 different interviews, just to arrive at the end and they ghosted me again for 2 months. It’s a terrible recruiting experience, and frankly not very respectful and human
