Process

The process took 6 days. Via a recruiter head hunting, I got asked in for an interview. I got there on time and signed in, waited for a few minutes, and a bunch of people came out. They didn't acknowledge me or invite me in. I waited another minute till the manager came out. He was keen to get out of the office and go around the corner for a coffee. It was a good interview. I had a think about it. It wasn't clear if it was for a senior, principal, or lead role. I read Glassdoor reviews and didn't feel it was going to be a step up, so I declined the second interview.
