I had 5 rounds of interviews. Hiring manager (VP)-> ED -> HR (VP)-> ED -> MD -> MD. Interviewers were friendly and asked about past working experiences and scenario-based questions. HR is helpful and responsive, updating progress promptly and advising on the next step. The entire process (from when I submitted the job application to obtaining a job offer) takes 4 months, including 2 significant festive holidays in Europe and Hong Kong.

The communication process was poor. They coordinate the interviews through email from offshore resources and don’t set expectations upfront. Then upon the initial interview the hiring manager was late, had me wait, then rescheduled. I proceeded to the 2nd interview with him and he implied he was very interested and I should be hearing from HR soon for next steps. He also said he’d respond to any questions via email and be a referral resource within the org to help if this role didn’t pan out. Yet he never responded to my Thank You emails or an inquiry for next steps after I had waited a week post-interview, and then I got an automated no-reply rejection email with canned verbiage. I never received any feedback on the process. This was despite the fact that I had given them multiple internal employee referrals.
