3.0
Average Interview
Overall Positive Experience Received and Accepted Offer

Interviewed Dec 2008 in New York, NY (took 1+ week)

Met with a peer within the team and then with the director of the group.
Subsequently met with the VP who had some concerns that I had previously been at a higher level in the company.
Interviews were not too tough, focussed on some leadership as well as some technical questions. Did not talk about future or where I wanted to be moving forward.
Needed to convince why the role was right for me.

Interview Questions

Give an example of a situation where you have had to deal with a problem with a lack of information. What did you do?

Negotiation Details

Very little flexibility in negotiation of offer.
Some verbal agreements were even later omitted.

Other Details

The interview consisted of a 1:1 Interview.
