      Product Designer Interview

      11 Sept 2025
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied through other source. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Xero in Aug 2025

      Interview

      It was an initial phone screening. Compared to other phone screenings, the recruiter had a neutral, unfriendly tone of voice and didn't seem to smile or make small talk it was just reading a standard script and asking the usual questions. It made me uncomfortable and left me with the feeling of having failed the interview despite the fact I met most of the job requirements. There were also some awkward silences after I had clearly finished speaking and it wasn't clear if she was listening or typing or waiting for me to give more detail. I can only assume this attitude is a reflection of the company and I am never applying here again.

      I interviewed at Xero (Auckland, Auckland)

      Interview

      Positive process that offered challenge but also outlined the great opportunities they have. The managers were really open and honest where they had challenges too before someone signed the contract

      Product Designer Interview

      7 June 2025
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Melbourne
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Xero (Melbourne) in May 2025

      Interview

      Tough questions (some weren't even role related) and overall the whole interview process of 7/8 stages is ridiculous. I would get it if they're larger companies like Google or FB but seems like they have the time and waste money just to hire for a general role.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      About myself, my computer science background and how it applies to design, etc
