Interview Experience at Jupiter Money

Recently gave an interview at Jupiter Money for Senior PM role: 1. There is an exploratory call to judge the fit - experience, skill and culture wise. 2. I was told there will be 3-4 rounds of interview and after that they will decide based on cumulative feedback of all the rounds 3. My first 2 rounds were scheduled - product sense and product strategy rounds. 4. First, The round got scheduled thrice. 5. I finally did my product sense round and to me it was one of the the best case study interview I gave. To the proof I also have complete documentation of the live case study I solved and also showed that to few senior product leaders in the industry. They also validated that that it was really well solved. 6. Next day I was told my round didn’t go as well and they are even cancelling the other rounds. There was no precise feedback which is anyway not expected. I communicated that according to the process I was told that all the rounds would happen and then a decision would be taken. 7. They ridiculed that. To me it was the case of strong personal bias where interviewer preferred other candidates because of his alumni or for other reasons or strongly did not like me. To avoid personal biases usually organisations do parallel rounds at senior level and take a decision based on cumulative feedback. In hindsight, it’s good it didn’t happen. Better to join a merit based organisation then biased and politics led.

Don’t even think about it. The product team is in a really bad place, Rathi was fired, the people he hired after moving in to make his mark have moved on including dunzo pari. Good riddance I would say. Moreover, it’s follow the leadership train in Jupiter so don’t even think about going there at least for a couple of years.

Lol isn't Rathi considered as a god among the product folks? He got fired? Interesting

Being god and projecting god are 2 different things. In any startup, no matter if you shit rainbows, founders decide everything. Moreover, few “product folks “ also considered that abuser Shravan bhaiya also as a god. No point in creating/following false gods

Yeah heard they are in extremely sticky spot, few product folks have been fired, it was probably a case of they putting the role on hold due to internal challenges. Would love to discuss the document with you

CRED - Product Ops Interview - Great experience!

Gave an interview for Product Ops at Cred. Didn't convert, but the overall experience was great: 1. HRs were empathetic and helpful - called after a week to give detailed feedback (covered what they liked, didn't like, what they were expecting) 2. Interviewer was also nice and keen to know more about my experience They were expecting a good understanding of growth and metrics, and I didn't have much experience with that, so I got rejected, but overall, it was an excellent experience. I have been putting all my recent bad interview experiences here, so why not also put a good one! :)

Review of Juspay PM role

Hi everyone, can anyone please help how good/bad the PM role at Juspay is? I have been made an offer. I went through a coding round. The money is okay but not sure about learning. Seems to be a very flat organisation and hence dont think will find good mentors in there Can anyone help? How is the overall culture?

Got rejected because of personal situations.

Recently, I gave an interview at this early startup in Bangalore. It consisted of 5 rounds. - The first four rounds were technical, design, and assignment rounds which went well. I answered all the questions fairly well and the interviewer was happy knowing the answer. - The fifth round was with the CEO - Now this was the turning point. He was more concerned about my personal situation. He asked questions like, where I live, where is my hometown, if WFO is okay for me (I was working remotely in my current company ), and where is your dad ( I said he was no more and that turned off the CEO of a company), how will you keep my mother in BLR, why your mom not living with your siblings?. And I was like "WTF man".the only technical question he asked -> "Have you ever hacked a system in your recent days?". 😂😂 After wasting more than 14 hours in the process I received a rejection mail without any feedback. Message to recruiter - if you are more concerned about the personal situation of the candidate, please conduct a preliminary round for that.

Product Management Interviews

Do hiring managers not go ahead with a candidate if they feel intimated or feel the candidate is better than them? You know you have answered most questions well but you get a rejection mail after 3 rounds of interview. Just curious.
