      Ad Ops Manager Interview

      19 Jan 2017
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Palo Alto, CA
      Declined offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Liftoff (Palo Alto, CA) in Dec 2016

      Interview

      A recruiter reached out to me through a friend / mutual LinkedIn connection. I had a screener with her, a phone interview with the VP of Customer Success, then two on-sites in Palo Alto. The entire interview process took about 3 weeks, which would have been shorter if not for the interviews taking place during the holidays and meet catching a cold. In the first on-site, I met with the CEO, CTO, and a Ad Ops manager (peer in the role I was interviewing for). The first set of interviews were partially focused on my experience, then moved onto cases and problems designed to gauge my math and logic skills. It was pretty fun and I was quite impressed with the folks I met with. The second set of interviews, I met with an Ad Ops Lead (day-to-day manager) and the VP of Customer Success (group manager). The second set of interviews were more behavior-focused, how would you react to XYZ scenario and a few more... character-based questions I suppose? Also had a really great time and enjoyed speaking with both. Received an offer about a week later, which I unfortunately declined. Really, really impressed with this team and expect big things from them. A special shoutout to Amanda, my recruiter, who was really great throughout the process.

      Thank you so much for sharing this great feedback! We are so glad that you thought the interview process was fun and enjoyable, especially since you also rated the interviews as "difficult." We try to use rigorous interview questions because they reduce the number of interviews candidates need to go through before we feel confident in making a hiring decision. At the same time, we hope candidates find fun in the challenge (a quality of a future great Liftoffer!), so it's great to hear that was the case for you. Though it wasn't a match this time, we hope that our paths cross in the future!
