I interviewed four times. First a phone interview with a recruiter, then a face to face meeting with the hiring manager and two additional executive assistants, and a final interview before receiving an offer. I applied through Volvo’s career site.
I applied online. I interviewed at Volvo Group (Gothenburg, Västra Götaland) in Aug 2024
Interview
A 30 minutes F2F interview with the Vice President of the organization on site where he gave a brief background of the organization and the company as well described where they are in the organization hierarchy

Question 1
Why did you apply for this role, what do you see in terms of growth opportunities in this role
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Volvo Group (Greensboro, NC) in Jan 2018
Interview
First step was a video interview which was awkward, then an in person interview, which was much more suitable and seemingly went well. I contacted them a few times via email to ask about next steps, and found out I was no longer a consideration. I felt they could have been more forthcoming than that.

Question 1
Standard interview questions, strengths, weakness, work style. Felt that it went very well but did not receive an offer. The only reason I could come up with, was that it was/is my age, as the job requirements matched my skills perfectly.
