Product Manager Jobs at Magic

Magic PM interview guide

"Magic" is an ambiguous name across several distinct companies, and public PM-interview material is genuinely thin. The two entities that actually surface Magic-specific product-manager content are: (1) **Magic AI**, an AI startup (London-based hiring observed Dec 2024 to Jan 2025), whose Glassdoor reviews from PM applicants describe an async, pre-recorded process rather than live PM case interviews; and (2) **Magic / Magic Labs (magic.link)**, the Web3 wallet/auth infrastructure company, which has posted a Senior Product Manager (Web3 Wallet and Onboarding) role on its Magic Connect team. Other "Magic" companies are different employers with no Magic-specific PM questions: Magic.dev (the AGI/code-generation startup, ~30 people) lists no PM role at all (its process is application review, an initial fit interview, a senior-staff technical discussion, a 5 to 8 hour take-home, an in-person team meeting, references, then offer); MagicSchool AI's public questions are sales/customer-success, not PM; MagicBricks, Magic Software, and Magic Leap are unrelated. Because of this, the sourced questions below come primarily from the Magic AI process and the Magic Labs PM job spec, and the set is deliberately small rather than padded with generic PM questions. Confirm which "Magic" you are interviewing with, since the process differs sharply by company.

The interview process

1. Magic AI: async video screen (no live interview). Per Glassdoor PM-applicant reviews, Magic AI runs a heavily asynchronous, pre-recorded process. Candidates are asked to submit a short video response within a couple of days covering their interest in the company, their approach to product roadmaps, and their user-interview experience, plus to share a detailed ticket/spec. Several reviewers noted the company used pre-recorded video rather than face-to-face interviews. Process length was reported around 4 weeks.
2. Magic AI: design challenge(s). Following or alongside the video screen, applicants reported being given two design challenges, each taking at least a day. Some candidates moved to a follow-up round where questions were based on their submitted task/recording. Multiple reviewers flagged the volume of unpaid take-home work and inconsistent communication.
3. Magic Labs (magic.link): standard product-strategy PM loop (inferred from the job spec). For the Senior Product Manager, Web3 Wallet and Onboarding role on the Magic Connect team (Herald Square NYC, hybrid), the posting frames the job around long-term product vision, metrics and strategy, translating strategy into short/medium-term plans and outcomes, and using user research and market analysis. Expect interview themes to track these responsibilities. (This is the role spec, not a verbatim interview transcript.)
4. Magic.dev: no PM role. Magic.dev (the AGI/code-gen lab) lists no product-manager opening. Its 7-stage process (application review, initial fit interview, senior technical-staff discussion, ~5-8 hour programming take-home, in-person team meeting, ~3 references, offer) is engineering-oriented; there is no public PM interview content.
