Behavioral Technical

I had a phone interview with one of the VPs. They first gave a quick rundown of their career and current role at RTR, then asked about my background. They had a list of questions, but skipped some because I didn't have experience in certain areas. I don't think I got the job likely due to my inexperience, which is a shame because companies really should look at talent from different industries. People get overlooked for jobs just because they lack experience in a specific role or industry, even if they are great at managing people. Even with a desire to learn and training, it wasn't enough.

Behavioral Group

The hiring process took about 6 weeks and included 3 interviews. I was drawn to apply because of their stated focus on women in leadership, but the interview panel only had one woman and three men, which was disappointing. It felt like they cared more about operational results than about culture fit.
