Contacted by a 3rd party recruiter, followed by a 90-minute phone screen by the hiring manager, followed by another 30-minute phone screen by the same hiring manager. The interview was not technical but focused on how you operate as a software manager. My perception was that even though Redfin has an interesting business model, it is overstaffed for what it needs to build.
All behavioral.
Type of questions: What are your strengths? What are your weaknesses? How do you motivate high performers? Give me an example where you disagreed with someone in product. Tell me about a project where you made a significant change to an existing process?
They never bothered to give me any feedback.
