Monks Senior Project Manager interview questions

It was nice, Fred was sweet and informative. It would have been helpful to speak to someone with a bit more technical knowledge as I think the interview as a whole probably would have been more insightful for them as far as my experience goes. She asked about a specific project in which a problem was solved, asked about a project that had gone poorly, etc. I run a product department so those types of questions don't really get to encompass what my experience looked like and I didn't feel I was given a chance to showcase my abilities otherwise. Very basic PM questions, anything you look up online will prepare you.

Warning, be mindful of time investment; my personal recommendation is skip this company until they change their interview process. Overall, it's pretty clear they don't have the maturity of other companies... but that's also the charm of a smaller companies. Early interview process is standard for technology companies, screens and questionnaires. Where things differ a bit from more established organizations is that TheoremOne immediately jumps into a presentation project. This means that before they've identified culture and skillset alignment... they ask you to put what is realistically a 4-10 hour project. They mention you can use any tools, but I strongly recommend using the ones they use in house to represent your capabilities. They provided a Figma file and utilize Google so while Google Slides is inferior to PowerPoint, it's the smart choice. Interestingly enough, no attention is given to the Figma file layers and controls. I can't really speak to who the interviewer is, but I had a product manager that only had 2 years of experience and clearly didn't have a lot of experience guiding and interview. That said the entire interview process was polite and professional. Unfortunately, they just haven't really figured out how tech should be hired. Consideration should also be given to the fact that it's not a pure product management position and they use it as a catch all for project management and QA as well. It's essential in the small teams, but a lack of refinement around a product management position is also an indicator of how an organization values product management vs other practices.
