After being approached by an external recruiter, I had three interviews using Teams Meeting. One with the line manager, one with the director and one with the country leads. This is followed by a one hour telephone assessment using Gallup. Decision on the interview process was quite quick.

The complete process lasted about 1.5 months. It constituted of about 8 rounds including a gallup (psychometric) round followed by a few rounds of negotiations. The interview questions were mostly around management and people skills. Some of them were around technical skills but on a broad level only. I had a good experience. The interviews lasted from 30min to 2 hours. The interviewers were warm and nice to talk to and the level of questions were relevant to the position. The interviews included 1 pre gallup, 1 gallup, 3 of them with rising seniority of managers, 1 with HR BP, 1 with american counterparts, 1 with VP R&D The HR also followed up really well and regularly and warm and nice to talk to. As a rule, do not take any interview for granted. Please well, be honest, confident, remember various recent (last 3 to 5 years) instances of your career and go for it.
