The recruiter reached out to me on LinkedIn. I had never heard of the company before, but it specialized in manufacturing, which closely aligned with my work at the time. The recruiter inquired if I would be interested in an open engineering position at Carmeuse. While reviewing the company's LinkedIn page, I found a Project Manager position that piqued my interest more. So, I asked the recruiter if I could interview for this position instead of the engineering role, noting that the latter offered lower pay. Similarly, the Project Manager position's salary wasn't ideal, but I wanted to see if there was any flexibility in terms of compensation for this role. The recruiter assured me that with some approvals, they could meet my expectations. At this point, I hadn't even officially applied for the position online. I had two rounds of interviews: one with the Hiring Manager, who is based in Belgium, and another with the Director of the department. Both interviews were conversational, focusing on experiences and "tell me about a time" questions. Since I already had experience in the manufacturing industry, they were able to connect with my experiences. About a week later, I was asked to apply online to have my application in their system, after which I spoke to HR and negotiated the compensation and other benefits. Everything worked out well.
