Question 1
Tell me about a time you had to give a presentation with very little time to prepare, and how did you engage with it.
Still in the process of interview. Have been shortlisted and waiting to hear back. It is 14 days later currently March 14th. I am supposed to hear back this month.
Submitted CV and filled questions out online. Then interview on HireVue. Five questions were asked in which the final one is a short written analysis. The previous four questions were just standard interview questions about why you're interested in the art market etc.
