Western Union Project Manager (PM) interview questions

A recruiter reached out to me and mentioned that they thought my background was suitable for a position at WU. I had a call with the recruiter, followed by a phone screen with the Hiring Manager. The hiring manager only wanted to know whether I’ve used Jira or not and didn’t really ask any questions pertaining to my experience. If a person had used any other tool such as Trello to something else to write stories, most likely they would be able to learn Jira pretty quickly. However, this seemed to be a deal-breaker for the HM as they did not ask me any further questions. I think Product Manager interviews must focus on interpersonal communications skills, general product management and technical skills, if the position desires that, rather than what tools you’ve used. If you’re aware of the processes, picking up on the tools may not be that difficult.
