Insider loops

Co-Founder

Sep 2025Present · 8 mos

  • Building company-specific PM interview guides for Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, Stripe, Uber, Figma, and DoorDash (more companies coming soon) with Marc Baselga.
  • We talk directly to PMs who ran interviews, influenced rubrics, and made hiring decisions. We also frequently talk to candidates going through interviews. Then we synthesize everything into digestible guides.
  • Started working on this after getting pinged for years by PM candidates asking the same questions about specific companies and decided to solve the problem so that candidates could focus on preparing, not intel-gathering.
