Had offline conversations with hiring executive who referred me to HR after a series of informal conversations around the role, including with my potential leadership peers in his BU. Executive indicated HR would contact me around next steps. Ted provided information on what was required to proceed to the next stage of the application process and worked with the executive to ensure alignment with all required stakeholders in the interview process. Some delay was introduced due to BoD activities and CEO PTO which was out of the hiring team's control.
