I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Edelman
Interview
One day after submitting my resume I received an email requesting a phone interview with a recruiting vice president. A week later I had a phone interview with the hiring VP, then two weeks later went to the office for a face to face interview with two addiitonal Vice Presidents. Later had a Skype interview with the hiring manager and had to take a 'personality' test. After all that, I never heard another word. They didn't even have the common courtesy to say we don't feel you're the right fit. Unbelieveable.

Question 1
The most unexpected thing about the process was having take the personality test.
The interview process was long and arduous. There were probably 6-7 interviews with HR and various people who work in the same practice. I didn’t interview with the person who would be my manager until the last round. Be sure to get any promises made during the process put in your employment contract otherwise it will not be honored even if you produce the correspondence.

Question 1
What is your superpower and why would it be a value add?
Job description did not align with actual role. The hiring manager was very helpful and transparent however. It was a pleasant conversation. The expectations were clearly laid out of the interview process, timing, and role.
Short and a little disorganized but this was a few years ago now. Everyone was kind and smart and the office was nice. There was a little bit of hurry up and wait to the process. But that's not unusual.
