I was an out of state candidate so my interview process started with a few phone and virtual interviews. My final interview consisted of a full day on-site interview with several members of the leadership team in the market I was targeting. It was an intense day of interviews but it allowed me to fully grasp the type of team and organization I would be joining. They asked tough questions about my background and accomplishments, but it wasn't overwhelming and I still felt comfortable throughout the process.

I was approached my Slaloms executive recruiting team for a brand new role. The first stage moved very quickly speaking with their US team and then came onsite for an interview with their recruiter. From there I met with the practice lead and spent over 1.5 hours on site. I then spoke with the MD for another 45 minutes. I heard back from the recruiter straight away saying it was all really positive and they wanted to close it out and get an offer on the tablet. This is where my experience turned poor -2.5 weeks went by with no word, no returned emails, no calls, no updates. I finally had a text message from their recruiter to say that they'd moved forward with another candidate. Poor candidate experience.
