Pretty standard interview process. Initially contacted by company recruiter for some initial profile info and then set up for face-to-face interview. There was no telephone interview. But that was probably because I was local. Interview was set up as individual face-to-face with two Directors, Product Management. About 1-hour for each interview.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Very good product management questions. How do you a survey a product; pricing decisions, market analysis.
Contacted by an HR person to discuss my interest in the position. She then spoke to the hiring manager who was interested in bringing me in for an interview. 2 hour interview was set up. Unfortunately, on the day of two people could not meet with me as they were not in. Interview with the hiring manager was thorough as he tried to figure out if I was a good fit. Also met with one other person. They both were nice and seemed to speak highly of the company

Question 1
I have never been asked this - and this question should never be asked - but the hiring manager asked me if I had kids. He did it casually and I delayed answering the question. He then persisted by saying 'I would say you have, what, 2 or 3 kids.' I reluctantly answered. Damned if if you damned if you don't. He went on to say he had two kids. There is not reason this question would be asked unless he was worried I wouldn't be able to tdo my job because I had kids. Would he have asked a male candidate that?
