Hiring Manager provided role play scenarios to developing a new product. Asked questions about my approach to requirements gathering, working with others, communicating work progress and stoppage. How I would manage an unhappy or aggressive customer.
Typical Program Mgmt type questions - lot of focus on the 'artifacts' or output that a tech PM will provide or generate.
Tell me about yourself
Describe your background as it relates to this position?
technical questions, and hypothetical solutions and my experience. One of the question was if a customer said that their internet browser IE is slow, how I would go about fixing this.
Why are you looking for a new opportunity?
Most unexpected: Would you consider a different position that isn't individual contributor?
Why are you looking to leave your current company?
I was asked to describe my personal leadership style and provide an example.
Recruiter sent a set of questions to answer and send them a copy. Questions were focusing in your failures, achievements, Amazon leadership and how it maps to your experience, as well as explain the most difficult project you got involved. I needed to prepare that before they arrange/offer a phone interview. Prior to my interview, I expressed the recruiter that I do not write code and I do not want questions to be asked in coding or SW design. I did not have any problems with SW project management, requirements and etc. My main background was HW. In my phone interview, there was not any single question about Amazon leadership or any questions about my resume. Only question was about API design and detail system SW design. I thought this is program management position and I felt uncomfortable with SW API design questions.
