I applied through other source. I interviewed at Affirm (Issaquah, WA)
Interview
Terrible recruiting process. The recruiter reached out to me, set up a call and discussed the role with bare minimum details. She said I would have a screening round with the Hiring Manager and it took her ~3 weeks to schedule this. Canceled on their end. Rescheduled it to the next week. Canceled again. Rescheduled it to 3 weeks later. So overall it took them over 6 weeks to schedule the first screening round. On the day of my interview, I am told I won’t be meeting with the HM, but a member on their team. My patience was definitely being tested. I was a tad disappointed because I wanted to meet the HM and learn more about her and the role. I receive the on-site confirmation via email and no call from recruiter. I asked her for tips/ prep for the interview and her advise was “Be yourself. Keep a bottle of water near you.” Thanks for nothing, lady. I met with the interviewers and I thought I did pretty well on the cases based on the feedback during the call. And then a week later, I followed up with the recruiter via email. 2 days later, I receive an automated email that they went forward with other candidates. Ghosted! If this is how Affirm treats anyone, that was a close call. Think twice before considering this firm. Culture is reflected poorly through the recruiting process.

Other Product Manager interview reviews for Affirm
I just finished the 30 min HM interview - all behavioral. I was asked to describe one project in details and was asked several follow-up questions to discuss deeper. overall good experience.
Straight forward interview with the process being laid out for you by the recruiter in the first call. Very thorough. Talk through your relevant experience and any pertinent questions. Not much more to say.
I applied online. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at Affirm (Michigan City, MS) in Jul 2024
Interview
One call with an internal recruiter where I was asked to go over each experience in my resume one at a time.
I had applied over 5 months before I got this interview invite but the person I spoke with did not seem to know the exact role I had applied for.
The call also seemed like a routine call just to cover the basics and I was told that the notes would be passed to the hiring team.
