The hiring manager did not ask me why I was qualified for the position or why I was interested in the position. Not a single question was asked of me regarding this role or otherwise. At one point, I offered to answer any questions she had for me and to give her a run down of my background. It was only after I asked her to ask me that she said "sure tell me about yourself."

The hiring manager asked me to identify which parts of the role I was most comfortable with, even though a senior-level position like Managing Director would typically require ownership of the full scope. When I emphasized that all aspects of the role are important at that level, the conversation shifted toward a narrower focus, and I was ultimately steered toward a more junior position. It felt like an attempt to reframe the role while maintaining senior-level expectations.
