Negotiation Details – No negotiation phase. I was extended an offer with a contract that included pay pro rated at 70k assuming 40 hour week and overtime above and beyond that.

Interview Details – The first contact is with HR to schedule an interview, then probably interview twice with the managers of the hiring position and if everything goes well, lastly HR will contact you with an offer. This process could take up to a month or more.

Interview Details – A former colleague made the introduction to the hiring manager. The initial contact with the Bank was positive. The infrastructure of the company was positive, the people I met with were insightful, and the questions posed were probing but fair. I had three interviews, each with more senior people.
