I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Pinterest (San Francisco, CA) in Aug 2018
Interview
I applied via LinkedIn and was contacted within two days for a phone screen. After the phone screen I was passed on to talk to an account manager that did the same role I was applying for. I reached out to my recruiter for pointers on how to best prepare for my interview but I did not get a response. When my second interview started we went straight into questions. They were not situational based questions. This interviewer was highly focused on how well I knew the product. It was a bummer that my recruiters did not prepare me one bit for my following interview. Overall, the process was extremely rushed and I don't feel any attention was given to preparing and organizing next steps. This was probably one of the most uncomfortable interviews I have done. As soon as I stumbled through a question in my second interview she was ready to hang up.

If you were in an elevator with the CEO of a furniture store how would you sell Pinterest ads to them in 60 seconds?
The owner of a flower shop reaches out to you and tells you that her KPI at Pinterest is not working. She tells you her Facebook, and Instagram ads are successful but not the ones at Pinterest. What do you do?

Interview
Recruiter screen went very quickly, so quickly I could not tell whether I did well or not. She didnt ask any follow up questions, so I couldnt tell how she was assessing me or not either.

final round was very challenging - 6 people on call that were drilling in terms of challenging client questions. Up to then the other rounds were good. Ended up not getting the offer.
