I applied online. I interviewed at athenahealth (Austin, TX) in Nov 2020
Interview
Went through several rounds after initial recruiter call. Took several weeks due to holidays and vacation. I would say the interviews are typical for any product job, but they didn't follow up after final interview. Typically, rejection templated emails are ok, but if you don't hear anything and even reach out and they don't respond feels a bit unprofessional.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Day in life of product?
How do you work with engineering?
Hypothetical for prioritizing work?
Tell me a time you did something wrong and how you worked to correct it or learn from it?
Excellent and enlightening experience with each round.
1st round senior product manager screening
2nd round case study round
Followed by 4 rounds of discussion with Product and Engineering directors around various PM competencies
Disorganized--4 rounds including case study (final round) and then no offer with no feedback. I truly liked the recruiter and people I met with so I was hoping it was just a bumpy path to a role I would enjoy. I felt they would forget there was a hiring process and then suddenly want to urgently coordinate another round.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at athenahealth in Oct 2025
Interview
Screener call, 30 minute recruiter call, one hour long manager call and two more 30 minute SME/VIP chats. A few 'what-if' scenarios, but completely practical and easy to navigate. There was good communication during the setting up for interviews but went radio silent after the last interview. Just saw the listing was taken down some time after.
