The process is long and time consuming:
1. HR Screening call
2. Line "hiring" managers - they were not sure if they are interviewing for their teams or for which ones.
3. Local head
4. International head
-some HR follow-up exchanges in between.
All to learn that due to economic situation there's a hiring freeze.
All the people and interactions were nice, though the line managers were totally caught off-guard by the questions about their leadership and overall working culture.
