Interviewed with one of the product managers that was very junior and then with the VP of product management. The VP seemed to want to pump me for information on a company I worked for that had a product that was similar to their product.

I have applied for a PM position in London and I didnt get the job. Which would be completely fair, if the company would base their decision on the lack of appropriate skills or qualifications.. However, what they did was extremely disturbing and showed that they are incompetent and reckless. Here is why. All in all, there were 6 Interviews, each 1 hour long. It was with recruiter, manager, director and then 3 interviews with 3 subsidiary employees in their office. I wasted 6 hours plus weeks of preparations to hear that I am not a "native speaker" and thus "am not able to represent the company". (although the required language skills are way above average!) I would say, by the time of the first interview they KNEW exactly what my native language and other 4 languages I speak were, still they decided to waste my time and didnt offer me any language test. And BTW the native skills were not the part of the job description. There are many issues with the attitude of Marin Software, who try to be #1 in the market. 1. reckless towards their candidates - its not OK to waste time of people you dont want to hire in the first place. 2. denying someone a job because of the "wrong" native language (thus, ethnical origin) is discriminatory and is considered against low in Europe. 3. Sales Director was bashing his former employees in front of me, that "the former marketing manager was uncapable" and " we had one British guy apply, but he couldnt really speak the X language, he wasted our time!" - very unprofessional. 4. Marin didnt pay my expenses back and it is over 1,5 months now! 5. it seems like their HQ and local subsidiaries have contrary agendas, which is a bad sign for a long run.
