      Software Engineering Manager Interview

      19 Mar 2022
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Chicago, IL
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Glassdoor (Chicago, IL) in Aug 2021

      Interview

      As Glassdoor is still a smaller company, the overall process was more flexible and personal. Interviews were conducted in multiple steps. First an informal meeting with a tech leader to cover interest and fit. Then, a product manager interviewed to discuss the company directions and their interaction with Engineering. They have a close working relationship and the Product Manager wants to also establish fit with new Engineering leaders. Next up was an interview with a senior engineering leader to discuss roles, experience, culture fit, and expectations of the positions. At this point my process ended as I was seeking a more senior role than what was available at Glassdoor given my background.

      Question 1

      In my specific case, I was asked about my digital mapping software development experience. We discussed how the experience would relate to their products.
