      Senior Marketing Manager Interview

      13 Mar 2024
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Minneapolis, MN
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Very (Minneapolis, MN) in Jan 2024

      Interview

      The interview process was extremely, well, surreal. I was happy to be included in the interview process, but on the first call, the HR woman doing the screening made no attempt at a basic greeting (like hello, how are you today?). She jumped right into her list of questions without any context or warning. It got better when I was able to speak to the actual hiring manager. Their process included a "homework" assignment that essentially asked candidates to build an entire 90 day plan. Mine obviously didn't hit the mark and that was clear when we reviewed it via Zoom. I think I had the right strategy. But she didn't. All is fair in love and war however - I clearly lost the competition and that's fine. I was happy to make it to the last round. What bothered me was that I never received a thank you from the manager for all of the work I put into to the plan I presented. Neither did I get a personal note from her saying thanks and best of luck. I just got the standard HR brush off email. Based on the fact that this HR person didn't even bother to confirm my name or greet me may be an indication of what their culture is really like. They also didn't have an actual sales team (which they were proud of). Yet they want to scale and grow. Right now, every lead generated runs through the CEO first. Not very scalable (or manageable) in my experience. Still, I wish them luck.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Basic questions about my background and experience, which were very normal once I was able to speak to the hiring manager. The HR screener had a list she was reading off, blew through them SO fast I can hardly recall what she asked.
