Consisted of 2 phone calls. One with an in house recruiter and a second with the person that I would report to. The phone calls were casual conversation and not very structured, very pleasant.

I went through two phone screens; first with a recruiter and then with a supervisor/Director for the Senior Project Manager position I applied for. Both phone screens went well and both interviewers knew that I did not have a background in the insurance industry and that my budgeting experience was limited to internal project budgeting. That being said, they invited me for an onsite interview for the position. I interviewed with four directors who all asked me the same questions, which had nothing to do with the insurance industry and more to do with my job history, my experience project managing customer implementations, my project management skill set (agile and waterfall) and the project budgets I currently an responsible for. The last onsite interview was with the Senior Director who, about 3 minutes into the interview, flat out told me I was not a fit to be a Senior Project Manager with iPipeline because I did not have the industry experience or budget depth experience they were looking for in a Senior PM. But that I could potentially be hired on as a regular project manager. Here's the thing- I I really felt like my time was completely wasted with iPipeline. Not only the four hours that I spent onsite interviewing, but also the time and effort I put into the phone screens as well. I applied for the Senior Project Manager position, not a regular Project Manager position. I made it pretty clear from the get-go with my phone screens that a senior position was what I was looking for in my next job move. I was baffled that I could make it this far in their interview process if I didn't meet their criteria of a Senior PM. I emailed the recruiter as soon as I got home to decline any further opportunities with iPipeline. In my experience, iPipeline seems a little chaotic. I can't imagine working in an environment where simple tasks, like having agreement on job description is not communicated through the channels properly. Seems like they are used to wasting a lot of time and effort.
