    Average Interview

    Application

    I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Lyst (London, England (UK)) in December 2019.

    Interview

    Clear and straightforward interview process including
    1) Short phone interview with HR
    2) Case study with an international director by skype
    3) Skype interview with VP International (many short case studies)
    4) 2-round interview with VP Product and VP Sales
    5) One more meeting with VP Internation (my potential manager) and HR to answer my questions

    The process was very fast: the results were announced to me the same day, 2-3 h after the interview.

    Interview Questions

    • Interviews were focused much more on job and Lyst product understanding than my experiences.
      1) HR: what I understand about the job and why I want to join Lyst
      2) Int director: xls data about lyst sales. How can we improve comission rate that Lyst receives from the brands?
      3) VP Int: Case studies about other search platforms (ex., Hotel.com): why 2 hotels have different numbers of reviews, etc.
      4) VP Product: cultural fit questions (what I am looking for at the new job, etc.); VP Sales: example of successful negotiations, etc.   Answer Question
