      Engineering Manager Interview

      21 Jul 2023
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Washington, DC
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Rula (Washington, DC) in Jun 2023

      Interview

      Not sure why Glassdoor’s formatting is all whacked out and chunked together but bear w/ me, you’re going to want to read this one before you apply/accept an offer esp. at the EM level. As a bonus, if you are product-minded, read about what the customers say about this company 👀. ##### Not sure why there was 1:1 w/ two separate recruiters, that was strange. Interviews for the EM route had to go through a senior leader first 🤷‍♀️. Interviewer seemed to be a technical person but lacked critical communication and empathy skills I would expect at this level. ##### Out the gate was asked why I wanted to work there so I talked about my cousin’s health problems, unrelated to mental health but where he still had issues finding providers which is literally the punchline of their business. Interviewer immediately cuts me off and makes a point that they are a mental health company not just another healthcare company. Interviewer then states a couple of statistics that I couldn’t hear clearly and then proceeds to correct me when I ask about the ratio of people who have difficulty finding providers. ##### Interviewer then opens the floor for me to ask questions so I ask if they work under a CTO - a completely valid question IMO that only requires a short response. Offended, the interviewer quickly counters with “what is a CTO?” as if I didn’t previously start my own start-up which went through YC twice as a technical founder. This literally turned into a 15 minute discussion of what is a CTO as if titles really matter that much - I guess they do to them because this person was technically not a CTO on paper and I wonder why 🤷‍♀️. I also asked about the healthcare domain and then followed up with the fact that the domain I come from has similar challenges. Interviewer seemed confused as if the domain I come from already had all the problems solved so I gave him the whole historic rundown of why and the endless open problems in my domain and the interviewer backed off after that 🙄. ##### Look if you’re a talented technical person w/ an entrepreneurial spirit don’t waste your time on this company. They have a lot of work to do regarding what I’ve observed at the highest levels of leadership if you can even call it leadership. As a former founder, my advice: if you're on C-suite level at this company reading this, you might want to do an audit of the people making all of your technical decisions ASAP.

      Engineering Manager Interview

      16 Apr 2026
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Rula in Mar 2026

      Interview

      I received a referral and went through a recruiter screen, hiring manager interview, product partnership interview, and system design interview. The recruiter was very responsive throughout the whole process. The hiring manager interview was primarily a conversation about my engineering leadership background, with some specific questions about projects on my resume. The product partnership interview was behavioral with questions around my experience partnering with product and project management. The system design was a technical round led by a principal engineer. The prompt (design a service that schedules initial appointments between patients and providers) was more challenging than I expected and far from what I’d prepared for. It didn’t feel as collaborative and conversational as the previous rounds. However, the recruiter was quick to follow up and provide feedback.
