I interviewed with HR person, a very nice and quite standard interview, and then went through to the Hiring Manager interview stage, which was three weeks later due to vacations. Apart from the fact that I felt we didn't click as people, the questions I was asked where not relevant to the role or to attributes the role required. The questions were trying to quantify how many documents of each document type, I had written, when was the last one etc.
Not heard back from them yet but I wouldn't proceed with this position anyway.
“The interview experience was genuinely enjoyable, balancing professionalism with a welcoming and comfortable atmosphere. From the very beginning, I felt at ease, which allowed me to express myself more openly and confidently. The conversation was not only cool and pleasant but also very productive, as it gave me an opportunity to showcase my skills while also learning more about the role and the organization’s culture. I particularly appreciated the interviewer’s thoughtful questions and engaging style, which encouraged meaningful dialogue rather than just a standard Q&A. The environment itself felt collaborative and supportive, leaving me with a strong impression that this is a place where ideas are valued, people are respected, and growth is encouraged. Overall, the interview left me with a very positive feeling about both the position and the organization as a whole

We’re happy to hear you had a good experience, thank you for letting us know.
Unfair process, the VP asked me silly questions just wasted my time. I think he had somebody available and already selected for the job. Not surprised as most of the hiring is like this in the UK
We’re sorry to hear about your interview experience. We’re always working to improve our processes, and your feedback will help us make better improvements.
Very regimented and scripted. Asking about a situation, your accountability and decision making and the outcome. Relevant information from past 3 years, and no earlier to describe your experience. Interview is intense- 30min-1hr per panel with multiple people.
