Initial telephone interview with two senior managers followed by a face-to-face with the hiring manager and a project manager. The telephone interview was lengthy (one hour) but friendly, open and positive - mostly competency based questions. The face-to-face interview took place late in the day (4.30pm) and was a big disappointment - the hiring manager was a woman who looked far too young and inexperienced for her role and she displayed little interest in my CV. I just had the impression that she was going through the motions. She kept repeating that she wanted someone who could be 'hands on' despite the job title being test manager. A total waste of my time.

The process consisted of 4 Rounds of Interviews typically over teams. Session 1 was introduction and pulse with HR. Session 2 involved high level questions. Session 3 was based on scenario questions with STAR answer required. Session 4 was with a Director to discuss potential clients.
