   Application

   I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at New Relic (Boston, MA) in Jun 2022

   Interview

   The process was very slow, taking three months. There were 5 weeks between when I applied and when I talked to HR. Then there were another 5 weeks before I talked to the hiring manager. Then another 1 1/2 weeks before the next round. I was rejected at that point, but there would have been another 3 rounds if I had been successful (including a take-home assignment and group presentation) - who knows how long that would have taken.
   
   The "product" part of the interview was about how I would monetize dashboard software for the "car of the future." I was given no information and 20 minutes to come up with something. I don't drive. I've never been inside a self-driving car (which was eventual stated to be what was meant by "car of the future") so all I could do was guess. And I suppose I guessed poorly.
   
   For all the talk about PMs needing to use data and be "customer driven" the interview process is so many companies is really focused on hiring people with excellent BS skills.
