The hiring manager was really good at interviewing and the process had a nice flow. Got the chance to meet some colleagues as next step to get a good sense of the culture, which was lovely. The reasons I declined was the salary and the office state and location. Please keep in mind that even though they asked for my salary expectations during the application and I answered honestly, they still contacted me and it felt like a waste of my time when they could come nowhere near my salary expectation. Overall positive experience, but I could have done without it as both the position and the salary were not that enticing and it did not feel like a step upwards.

Question 1
How do you elicit requirements for the next generation of your product range? How will you document these requirements, meaning using which tool?
I applied in-person. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at ABB (Vaasa) in Jan 2025
Interview
I applied for a summer internship and was immediately emailed and explained the information for the AI Product Management position. I accepted and had a short online interview with the line manager. They explained the specifics of the product in question. After a few weeks, I had an in-person interview at Vaasa. Since I had a few weeks to spare and I was eager for the job, I prepared a demo of a product that was going to be developed by an external team over the summer and took it with me to the interview day. It was considered, but in the end, it backfired and I lost the job in the final stage due to my too technical vision. You will manage a product much better when you know how to build it.
