I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Columbia University (New York, NY)
Interview
Phone screen, in person interview with recruiter, then senior staff member, good probing questions. The good thing about this was that although I didn't get the job, the recruiter contacted me really quickly to let me know I was not moving on to the next step, many companies let you hang for a long time or never contact you so you don't know. On the downside, I always ask 'what could I do better?' in the interview, I did not get a response. I know it's a lot to ask, but if you're a dedicated recruiter, that's your job.

Interview
1 screening call with the hiring manager (zoom), 1 panel interview (also zoom) with the core team during which I presented a strategic plan I was asked to develop, and 1 in-person meeting with business school leadership. After all that... I never heard back. Not even a "we're moving forward with other candidates" email.
