I was emailed for an interview, and there was no HR involved. Two interviewers met with me. They were very proud and acted superior, repeatedly mentioning they were ranked 8th globally, which I found odd given my background at a global FANNG company. The technical questions were fairly easy if you know the job well.

Confirmed questions2 questions
  • Can you describe an instance of managing a challenging stakeholder?

This process has been going on for more than three months now. I've tried to get updates multiple times, but I haven't heard much back about my application status. I get that things can take time, but it feels unprofessional for SCALE, a higher education institution, to leave candidates in the dark for so long without any communication.

Confirmed questions2 questions
  • Could you discuss your previous work experience?
  • Can you detail some of your past accomplishments or projects?

Behavioral Case Other

So after the video interview and psychometric assessment, I got shortlisted for a virtual interview with HR. This was in early Jan, and the interview was in mid Jan. A few weeks later, around end Jan, they shortlisted me for a case study + physical interview which was in mid/end Feb. After that, they had another face to face interview. I was contacted in early March, and the interview was in mid-end March. I got offered a week later, and the offer letter came in Mid April, about 3/4 weeks later.
