Behavioral Presentation

The process was pretty quick and easy, no issues. It took less than 3 weeks. First, I had a one-on-one with the Hiring Manager, then a panel with Senior Directors, and finally, the Hiring Manager called with the offer.

The interview started well, covering all the essential aspects with positive interactions with the hiring manager and head of department. However, the process changed when a senior consultant was brought in. It felt personal, perhaps because they realized I might outperform them statistically. This individual then dismissed all my responses, ultimately leading to a rejection.

I got a call during the workday, which I missed because I was working. They emailed asking for my availability and then I didn't hear back. It's weird to call without setting up a time first and it seems unprofessional. It's strange to ghost people after asking them to get back to you ASAP.
