Behavioral

I had an initial call with a recruiter where they asked about my background. It turned out the job I applied for, Electrical Project Manager, wasn't what I was interviewing for, which was confusing because they use misleading titles. It seems they might lower pay and benefits by switching roles. After the recruiter call, I had a video interview with the operations manager for an Electrical Engineer role, even though I'm already a Project Manager.

Confirmed questions1 question
  • Can you describe a project conflict you faced and how you resolved it?
