Project Manager
The interview process started with a 30-minute HR phone screen. Next, there was a video call with two hiring managers since they were filling two positions. This was followed by a final round of panel interviews. The hiring manager was very encouraging, telling me I had a strong resume and background, and even stayed after the scheduled time to share more details about the job, the office location, his vacation plans, and who I would report to during onboarding. The panel interviews also seemed to go well, and they gave me positive feedback on my background, although some parts felt robotic, and I had to repeat answers when one person joined late. Ultimately, I received a rejection email stating I wasn't a strong candidate, which felt disingenuous given the initial enthusiasm. I've since applied to another role and was automatically rejected.
- Can you share an example of when you managed teams across different functions and dealt with conflicting priorities?
Project Manager
I had two MS Teams interviews which went well, the interviewers were very knowledgeable and asked good questions. The third interview was on-site, but getting there was a bit of a hassle with unclear directions and a security guard who wasn't sure where to direct me. I had to go through two buildings, and a random employee had to escort me with their pass. During the tour of the facility, I had an unscheduled hallway interview with a senior team member I wasn't supposed to meet with, but it went fine. I was really liking the role and the idea of a hybrid setup after the on-site. A few days later, they called saying I'd get an offer, but then they received an email about a major team reorganization. Because of this, the position I interviewed for was no longer available. They suggested I apply for other roles and let them know, mentioning they'd forward my notes to the new hiring manager. I did that and haven't heard back at all, not even a rejection. It was quite disappointing.
- Could you elaborate on your project management background?
- How would you approach managing multiple priorities?
- Can you share an instance where you had to deal with a challenging stakeholder?
Project Manager
I had a phone screen with the recruiter, and then the hiring manager reached out. After that, I did a phone interview with two team members. The final step was an onsite interview where I met with the hiring manager and more team members. I spent an hour with the team and then 30 minutes with the Director of the unit.
- Can you share an instance where you successfully met expectations?

- What is your approach to managing change?
