Interview
Two 45" screening phone calls with immediate supervisor and her supervisor, then a 7-hour onsite interview with 10 individual people - some on the work team, and others were partnering teams. Staff & managers were very friendly, and seemed engaged. Interviews appeared to go well.
Hiring manager repeatedly verbalized high interest in me, but at all post-interview phone meetings (which she set up), she neglected to contact me. Finally, after 10-wks, responded to my email inquiry by saying they were moving on to other candidates.
