Overall the process took 1.5 months for 3 rounds. It started off good and then got progressively worse. The first two rounds went well and both the recruiter and hiring manager seemed thrilled with my experience. Then came the case study. Two scenarios were described that were product management 101 level. They were easy but the ask was to create a presentation for both scenarios, totaling 6-10 slides and presenting for 30 minutes. They said it shouldn’t take more than an hour to prepare…clearly they’ve never put together a presentation before. It took me 6 hours end to end. I presented to 7 people which was excessive. The 2 PMs on the call were not friendly and didn’t seem like they wanted to be there, which was a big red flag. A few days later I got an email from the recruiter saying that they “decided to close the position as we are discussing internal business needs and structure of the team.” I couldn’t believe they wasted so much of my time and asked me to do a free assignment days before and they were on the fence about if they should even fill the role! What a mess of a company. It also shows signs of a potential layoff or restructuring since they clearly are hurting financially. This was a role that was vacant so to not fill it isn’t a good financial indicator. Needless to say, don’t make the same mistake I did and let TimelyCare waste your time. 1. 30 min recruiter zoom interview 2. 30 min zoom interview with VP of Product (hiring manager) 3. 1 hr Panel case study presentation
