Tips for an interview for a supervisor role without having supervisor experience?

Prepare examples of
- leading/motivating a team
- managing projects (what change did you make that impacted the completion of the project, etc)
- having difficult conversations (constructive feedback)
- dealing with difficult people

Prepare examples to be able to tell your story. They can be from work you’ve done in your current role, not necessarily supervising people.

Good luck!

Same as above, and reiterate to interviewer that you are eager to learn and grow in this position.

Should I complain to a firm's HR if the interviewers laughed at my answer during an interview? Maybe it sounded scripted but it was still heartfelt and genuine: my immigration story and how that made me appreciate the rule of law. I said it soo many times during OCI's that maybe it eventually sounded robotic, but for the interviewers to laugh and one to say sarcastically "nice elevator pitch", I thought was rude. Thoughts?

A colleague told me today that Google separates Product Manager and Product Owner as two separate roles.

I feel like I was straight up lied to during the interview process. “lots of opportunities to hit quota”. I’m sitting here with only one demo two months after joining the company. it looks like our team has only two people doing demos, and demos are only happening once every two weeks. At this rate, I don’t think I’ll be even close to hitting OTE. Are there any other companies hiring right now? I’ll have a discussion about my concerns with my manager soon, but there’s too many red flags here.

Had an interview for an associate position at Citi. Interviewee was based in London and I’m in NYC. The only interview time that worked was 6am. I was barely functioning and feel like I truly messed up in my answers because I couldn’t not think clearly. I have another with the head of the division next week again at 6am (pre determined before this interview). It was also hard because the division’s core work is private enough that there was not much prep I could do beforehand. Tips?
