Corporate Executive Board Associate Director Interview Questions & Reviews

Interviewed Aug 2010 in Arlington, VA (took 6 weeks)

Entire process took 6+ weeks. After applying online, received email communication requesting phone screening interview w/HR rep. Was referred to another HR rep, who took 2+ weeks to coordinate a 2nd phone interview. 2+ weeks later, scheduled for 2 back-to-back 1:1 interviews. 2+ weeks after interview, received email that was no longer being considered for position.
HR reps were very encouraging, staff were not. Instead of a "let's learn more about you and see if this is a good fit" feel, it was much more, "Why are you here".
