Product Manager Interview Experience
Interview process
The recruiter was a pleasant person and guided me through the process. The process was unnecessarily long (late Aug - Oct). I spoke to 7 people and was already discussing numbers only to be told the leadership wanted to go in a different direction.

Interview tips
You need to know the domain very well. You need to have worked in payments and really understand the basics.
Company culture
Some people in the team are very smart and forward thinking. Some aren't and the decision makers do not know the difference. It's not a very diverse company. The org I used to work in had no female employee.
