Upwork Program Manager interview questions

The first part - great! Spoke to an internal recruiter, went over the job and my background and agreed it would be a good fit and moved forward. The second part - great! Met with a team lead, basic background and culture for questions. Went well, both exited about the next step and agreed I’d be moving on. Third step - peer process. This is where it went sour. I’m not sure if there was a miscommunication or if one of the interviewers was just having a bad day but I was asked numerous trick questions and numerous questions that didn’t revolve around my background nor the job description that I was given in the previous two steps. I was asked fairly technical questions and how good I am at building computers. Something that was neither a requirement nor in my background. At first I thought I maybe was confused with someone else but other pieces of my background were specifically hit on. Overall it’s a good process but I felt that there was a bait and switch at the end or perhaps the interviewers aren’t qualified to conduct an interview.

It took six interviews for them to notice I was black and didn't want to move forward. There isn't enough diversity with this company. I've heard they're trying to diversify much more but I'm not sure how true this is.
