I had done couple of internships in Operations, Strategy, Analytics & had a bit of flavor of Product during my recent internship at Swiggy. After experiencing almost all sorts of career paths, I felt I could make the most impact & expand my horizons by entering a product role. My interview experience with GlowRoad was pretty exciting & smooth. Here's the process after profile shortlisting
