The process was very efficient and straightforward. It started with a phone screen, and then I was invited to visit for about six hours, including a nice lunch.

The interviews were individual, one at a time for 45 minutes each. They included a nice cross-section of the team members I would be working with, managing, and also other managers at my level from other parts of the organization.

All in all, a very well-executed process.

One of the questions asked was how I would handle a set of difficult conversations with potential employees. This question is usually asked if they want to understand how you would manage in challenging situations.
