I. interview on telephone. Getting to know you questions - all very easy and pleasant.
2. Met with senior manager in person - talked through CV.
3. Had telephone interviews with 6 additional execs - some easy, some very intense.
4. Panel presentation to 5 people (2 internal / 3 external) on their product set.
Finally, after wasting so much telephone and preparation time they decided to change strategy and not hire anyone.
