The job the hr offered didn't match what was promised. During the interview, the hiring manager suddenly mentioned that only this one position was available, which was completely different from what the hr had offered. The hiring manager only explained the job scope during the interview and promised to provide results in 1-2 weeks, but I've been ghosted since then.

The Recruitment Manager was super professional. After I applied, she got in touch for more info and then set up an interview. The interview itself went really well and was organized. I spoke with three people: the Recruitment Manager, an Associate Director for Regional Finance, and a Director from Hong Kong via Skype. They asked questions that were spot-on for the role, nothing too personal. It was a great session, and I ended up getting the job!

The interview process involved a recruiter call, followed by a phone screen and a technical screen. The final interview was a panel interview conducted by the director, a senior manager, and talent management. This interview was focused on my technical skills, leadership potential, and how I would contribute to the team's success. After the onsite, there was a background check and then an offer was extended.
