Convoluted process, disproportionate to the reality of a start-up/small firm. Literacy and numeracy tests, first and second interviews including panel interviews. Seemed hierarchical and a bit like central government processes. Appallingly arrogant CEO who really doesn’t have a good sense of anything other than NHS processes. Didn’t respond well to candidates asking questions. I did my own research and financials don’t look good for the firm. Combined with gut sense that this firm would be a nightmare to work with, I declined my offer
