• Ability to tell a story with data, after receiving it in raw forms
• Ability to guide designs to make the best product possible
• Passion for games and an exhaustive knowledge of noteworthy industry trends

Recruitment process:

• First meeting: You will meet the hiring manager. Before diving deeper into your skills, we want to know who you are and what motivates you. This is also an opportunity for you to learn more about Rovio and the specifics of the role.
• Second round: You will do an exercise to complete in your own time and be able to discuss your thoughts in depth.
• Third round: Meeting people in the Product Management discipline.
• Final round: You will be invited to meet the team lead and team member(s) of the game team. Our aim is to get a clear overview of your skills, how you would fit with our working culture, your ambitions and where we can help you develop.
