Gone are the days of lunch meet-and-greets and office tours.\u00a0 Although Zoom may have taken the place of those in-person meetings, the product manager job interview process itself remains intact at a fundamental level.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To help navigate the journey of finding a new product manager job, we\u2019ve compiled this list of the most popular product manager interview questions of 2021.\u00a0 With over 100 questions to practice with, you\u2019ll be prepared and ready to rock your interviews.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>What to Expect from a Product Manager Job Interview Process<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Product manager interviews (and the processes for those interviews) can look different at different companies but, at its core, you\u2019ll find yourself following the same steps.\u00a0 Let\u2019s start from the top.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Taking the Leap:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The first step in a product manager interview process is arguably the most important.\u00a0 Deciding WHERE to apply is not only how to kick off the interview process, it\u2019s how you determine what the next chapter in your career is going to be.\u00a0 As for me, I look for a company whose mission and values align with my own and a company whose product I\u2019d be excited to work on. Find what you feel is right for you.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Phone Screen<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Once you\u2019ve chosen where to apply and sent out your resume, you can expect an email with either (basically) \u201cthanks, but not at this time\u201d or a request for a phone screen, likely from a recruiter or HR rep.\u00a0 This is where you\u2019ll discuss your background, what you\u2019re looking for as a next step, and why you were attracted to that particular product manager role. The purpose here is to filter out candidates who can be identified as not a good fit right away.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Product Manager Interview with Hiring Manager<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: In what now feels like \u201cthe olden days\u201d (am I becoming my grandparents?), the next step would be some sort of on-site interview with the hiring manager and several others. In a COVID world, this step will be a <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">video<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> interview.\u00a0 Some companies will split the hiring manager and other team members into two or more days\/steps, but a lot try to get it done in a single day in order to save time in the overall product manager interview process.\u00a0 This is the step where you\u2019ll showcase your product manager skills and strengths.\u00a0 You\u2019ll answer product manager interview questions and discuss what value you can add to the company.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Take-Home Assignment<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Not all companies incorporate a take-home assignment but if they, this is the place in the product manager interview process where it would likely take place.\u00a0 As someone who has interviewed frequently, I\u2019ve encountered only two companies with a take-home assignment.\u00a0 What the hiring team is looking for in a take-home assignment is your ability to strategize, create a plan, and the process you use to identify and solve problems.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Final Interview<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: If you\u2019ve been given a take-home assignment, you\u2019ll likely have a follow-up interview to walk through it.\u00a0 The interviewer (likely the hiring manager) will discuss the assignment with you and give you an opportunity to explain your process in more detail.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>You made it!<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: If you\u2019ve made it through and the team sees you as the right person for the job, you\u2019ll get a call from either HR or the hiring manager.\u00a0 This is the part of the product manager interview process where you\u2019ll discuss numbers and benefits, what your specific title will be, and negotiate.\u00a0 Congratulations!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><b>What do companies look for in a new Product Manager?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether you\u2019re looking for a junior product manager or the Chief Product Officer, the qualities of a good product manager remain the same: customer obsessed, empathetic, strategic thinker, collaborative, analytical, a great communicator, and insightful.\u00a0 The product manager is the glue that holds the organization all together.\u00a0 As a product manager, you touch sales, customer success, development, customers themselves, user experience, leadership, pricing, and even depending on the size and structure of the organization. A company hiring a product manager at any level will be looking for a mixture of these skills.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2><b>The Ultimate List (100+) of Product Manager Interview Questions<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We\u2019ve compiled over 100 product manager interview questions to give you an idea of what you can expect in a product manager interview.\u00a0 These questions will help the interviewer understand your skills as a product manager, the processes you use to solve problems and strategize, how you work with a team, and your technical knowledge.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>General Product Manager Interview Questions<\/b><\/h3>\n<h4><b>Behavioral<\/b><\/h4>\n<ol>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Describe a situation in which you had to arrive at a compromise or help others to compromise.
