Based on my experience interviewing for the VP Product position, I’m not sure that this company knows what exactly they’re looking for. Are they even really trying to fill this role? They’ve been hiring for this role since September 2019 (perhaps even earlier!). Collage is a 100% remote company so they have access to a talent pool from literally everywhere, so it’s interesting to me that they’re having so much “trouble” filling it. That should have been a big red flag for me. The process itself was pretty standard. The people I spoke with were pleasant! Then there was a somewhat time-consuming take-home assignment where candidates are asked to submit a response, thinking about solving a very real problem for Collage. Take-homes in the process are of course fair, but what’s not fair is it seems that Collage may have a pattern of accepting these very applicable take-home responses, and then not proceeding with the interview process. I got template-type of note saying ‘we’re going with another candidate’ — though this all happened a bit of time ago, and the job listing is still live on their site. So who knows. I very rarely write reviews, but felt compelled to here. Throughout my career I’ve not gotten tons of jobs I’ve interviewed for :), but something just didn’t sit right here. Fellow Product Manager candidates: proceed with caution!
