I had 4 interviews with RH. The first one was with the recruiting agent (RH). The meeting went well, and he scheduled another meeting face-to-face with who might become my manager.
This meeting also went well, with both sides asking good questions to evaluate the candidate/opportunity. The recruiting agent contacted me again a few days later, asking me to return for a 3rd interview with the sales manager and the account executive that I would be working with.
This interview also went well, even though I felt they were looking for a slightly different profile. At this point, I thought I wouldn't be called back, but the recruiting agent called me back a few days later, asking me to come to what would be the last interview.
This interview was supposed to test my presentation skills. They gave me a scenario 2 days before the interview to prepare and present in front of a panel that would "act" as the customer in the scenario. The scenario was a 1-pager with some notes that I would have supposedly taken during a previous meeting, and I had 30 minutes to present the result of my findings to them.
The beginning went well, but quickly, the members were after some very specific information that I didn't have in my slides and didn't know. While I understand the "grilling" part to show how I would handle pressure with real customers, I found that the insistence on the same topic was pointless since it was clear I did not have the answer they were after.
At the end, I was told that I needed to wait 1 week to get the result, since they still had 2-3 more candidates to interview.
