Me postulé en persona. El proceso tomó 5 días. Acudí a una entrevista en Airwallex (München, Bavaria)
Entrevista
Screening round - The HR connected with me on LinkedIn to apply for this role seeing my profile on LinkedIn. She and one of her partners took 30-40 mins interview and sent an invitation for 1st round with 2 others in airwallex based in China.
1st round - only one person showed up and he seems not much interested. Interview was scheduled for 45 minutes , it went on for 50 minutes. He did not had any domain specific experience which is payments and he was only talking.
After 3 days I got rejection. I could see in all job boards this position is open from months and they are again putting same position as open. I am just guessing they are doing time pass in name of interviews , A fun time for them :-) . I really hope they will get their dream Product manager soon.
One tip for serious applicants- Prepare well for product management concepts and appear for interview. If you still get rejected then it is their problem and not yours. There are many other promising and ethical Fintechs out there.

3. Some random question: regarding some ship buying , cruise travel , approaching bank for loan. How will you convince bank to give loan for this ship cruise business. I did not understand what he meant and I am not sure whether he himself understood what he asked :-D.
4. Why airwallex
5. And some weird question - How did you got the interview call ? And who arranged it.
Wasted wonderful 50 mins of my life!!
initial recruiter talked with me, then was passed to hiring manager for discussion. there is a framework but it deviates quite a lot from the original question so you need to be flexible with how the conversation is going

One of those where you get encouraged to apply by their recruiter and then you get rejected after stage 1 for "being overqualified". The worst part? Lack of feedback, even when requested.
