      Product Manager Interview

      29 Aug 2019
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Seattle, WA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at RealSelf (Seattle, WA)

      Interview

      First, you get a phone interview with a product director. Next, you will have four rounds of interviews with a product director, product manager, UX team, and SDM. After a couple of days, interview with CTO. The experience was good till last round. The last round was very disrespectful, the person was highly opinionated, and regularly threw a sense of supremacy. He talked about himself and his approach for more than 60% of the time. He actually told me that nobody care about our customer in the organization and he is the one who will change this ( ha ha). You hardly hear candidates saying bad things about their previous companies, and here a senior guy talking bad thing about his current company. Within 10 mins, I knew that I don't want to spend my life working for (not with) him. That person changed his job every couple of years (one time in 7 months). During the interview, I kinda understood why? The recruitment team was great. Other folks who were there in RealSelf for few years were amazing and very friendly. So I recommend, wait till 2020 to apply.

      Thank you for your consideration in RealSelf and for taking the time to meet with us. It was not my intention to make you feel disrespected and I apologize that was your takeaway. I personally really enjoyed our conversation, and thought at the end of the interview you'd make an excellent technical program manager, which I provided as recommendation to our hiring manager. In the end, we decided not to move forward due to a highly competitive pool of other strong candidates for the role of product manager. We take hiring very seriously and continually strive to improve our candidate experience. We will certainly take your feedback into consideration when looking at our interview process overall. Wishing you the best of luck in all your future endeavors! - Ward, RealSelf CTO

      Product Manager Interview

      5 Dec 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Seattle, WA
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at RealSelf (Seattle, WA)

      Interview

      Interviewed with HR over the phone and with a Product Manager in person onsite. The Product Manager saw no value in an MBA degree or my years of experience working in the field of cosmetic surgery. He knew nearly nothing about the people who rely on the company's platform for their care or for making a living and thought that this information was irrelevant. I got the impression that this company is fumbling in the dark and needs to really understand the line of work they are in. Too focused on making software products and not focused enough on the human factor and the impact the company's products are having and could potentially have. I read all the 'feel good' reviews about working at RealSelf, but the interview process made it clear to me that the company has a long way to go in terms of how it thinks if it wants to be successful in this line of work. Perhaps RealSelf is a better place to work at for those who have a very scripted job description.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Tell me about yourself. If money wasn't an issue, what would you do? You mean aside from sipping margarita's in Cabo? Or parking my yacht and gambling in Monaco? Or buying a ticket to fly to the moon? Or partying in London and shopping at Harrods for my French Chateau redesign? Or exploring New Zealand's wilderness with a helicopter? Or stopping in NY city to shop for the latest fall fashion on my way to party in LA? Maybe he was hoping to hear that I aspire to work from home in my jammies and a bowl of Captain Crunch.

      Product Manager Interview

      20 Sept 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Seattle, WA
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at RealSelf (Seattle, WA) in Sept 2018

      Interview

      Very seamless interview process. Great communication with recruiters throughout with lots of transparency. Everyone was friendly, smart, and seemed passionate about the problem space and empowering individuals with more information on their health and beauty. Questions covered tackle interesting dynamics between their 3 user bases - brands, physicians, and consumers. Office is in a neat part of Seattle (Pioneer Square) with a standard tech setup (snacks, lounge areas, nap room, moving white boards). Process: 1. Phone screener with recruiter 2. In-person meeting with Director of Product to learn more about each other and get questions answered. Also was given product questions to talk through for next meeting. 3. Google Hangout with Director of Product talking through two product challenges 4. On-site interview loop with 4 interviewers (Director of Product, PM, Director of UX, Engineering Mgr) Didn't receive an offer but response was timely and recruiter was very communicative on timeline and expectations.
