We start with recruitment planning, then do an initial screening, followed by some in-depth interviews, skill assessments, and team evaluations. After that, we do reference checks, then move to offer negotiation, and finally onboarding for successful candidates. Planning, screening, interviews, assessments, team evals, references, negotiations, offers, and onboarding make up our whole manager interview process to make sure we pick the right person.

I had a first video call with HR, the chief of the tendering department and the cost estimation manager. After that, HR and the cost estimation manager contacted me again about a slightly different role, like an 'internal proposal manager.' Since I was unsure about proceeding with a role that doesn't involve external client contact, I asked for time to consider it. Later, I informed them by phone that I wasn't interested. Overall, the selection process was well-handled, despite my lack of interest.
