Hopper interview questions

First, I was contacted by a recruiter, and we had a 20-minute call. Then, they sent me a Product Test. After this phase, I talked with four managers and got the job offer.

Recruiter call, then asked to spend 2-3 hours on a takehome assignment that involves lots of data cleaning. Regardless of your interview status, DO NOT SPEND MUCH TIME ON THE TAKEHOME. Despite a travel-industry-wide dropoff in domestic travel, the recruiter said the business was "going great", so I tested the hypothesis seen in these reviews: that the company is using ideas sent in from ex-FAANG to get KPIs for product features they need to optimize for revenue - I only left one idea and it wasn't original on purpose, but finished the exercise so that it was technically sound, spent about 3 hours on it, for my own means to stay fit, and did not get the next interview (nor did I expect it). Was glad to prove the hypothesis and help people reading this. Interviews are where ideas materialize not a takehome assignment. It suggests more about the culture @ Hopper than anything, but enjoy your interview.
