The process was very long and unnecessarily complicated. Many rounds of interviewing. You're prepped by a recruiter (who likely gets commission if you're hired) and given homework to prepare testimony for the LOOP process. Somewhat random employees are included in the panel, where they ask questions off a script and most are not able to answer any questions about the role. In fact, they don't even allow time for the interviewee to ask their own questions to see if they even want the role.

Interview
After the assesment, the recruiter contacted me and asked questions about my previous experience as related to product management. She was very helpful, and told me I would have the next interview with the team and she would get back with the dates. However, never heard from her as the position was relocated to another country.
