Engineering Manager Interview Experience - Amsterdam, Netherlands
Process
The whole process took almost 3 months.
The recruiter ghosted me for a month before proceeding with interviews (ignored repeated emails, eventually had to contact one of their colleagues through LinkedIn to get the process going again).
The hiring manager did not even bother interviewing; a senior manager interviewed instead.
It sounds like they already knew who they were going to hire and just needed a paper trail to show "due diligence".
I went through a total of 6 or 7 interviews.
