I applied through an employee referral. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at OutSystems (Lisbon, Lisbon District) in May 2019
Interview
The hiring process was fast and smooth, it lasted around 5 weeks. I had a first interview with People Ops (HR), two with the hiring manager (one of those interviews was to present an exercise I had to prepare), and a final interview with the VP o Product Management.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell me how you did this or that in the past. How would you do this and that? Prepare an exercise and present it once you are ready (time was defined by me).
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at OutSystems in Nov 2019
Interview
1) Recruiter reached out to me on LinkedIn; 2) Had phone screen with recruiter; 3) Had phone interview with hiring manager; 4) Was asked to give presentation to hiring manager and others on the product management team*
*This is where things went downhill. The team's request was for me to put together a presentation that, when all aspects were accounted for, probably would have taken me roughly 12 hours to complete. This very much felt like overkill and, in my estimation, is a sign of what things probably would have been like working for Outsystems. My gut told me to withdraw my application for the role and that is what I did. Happy to have made that decision.
