I applied for Product Manager (Risk) via referral directly to the hiring manager in May 2021. The hiring manager contacted me 1.5mo later for an interview after which I was moved to case study stage with the VP of Product, hiring manager and eng manager. I was sent the case on a Friday evening/ EOD for a Tuesday presentation with no regard for the rest of my engagements - unusual but not unheard of, so fine. It was a case study relating to an entirely different topic vs Risk, which is what my specialisation was in and hence the role I applied to. At the beginning of the case study interview (July) the VP of Product emphasised how important inclusion is to him etc. (it is mentioned as a prominent priority for me on my CV). During the presentation he remarked about how my approach was unique and covered angles that the 7+ other candidates had not picked up on. However they did ask questions about my data calculations. Overall, hard to tell whether I met expectations. After that, they completely vanished, despite 2-3 follow ups to the recruiter and hiring manager both. This was quite annoying considering this was a fairly senior full-time position. The recruiter called me 2+ months later saying they had chosen another candidate. Overall, I had a disappointing candidate experience and don't recommend the company as I saw dissonance between their actions and values.
