CV and cover letter, followed by two pre-interview calls with recruiter. Followed by an online Interview with the leadership and board and an in person face-to-face interview at their office. The recruiters were great but the panel were confused, disorganised and incoherent. Each panel member seemed at odds with the others. I had the impression they didn't know what they were looking for and it appeared there was a personality cult around the CEO. The online interview was particularly bad. Billed as an informal chat to get to know each other it was anything but. The panel were unengaged and combatant with the panel furiously looking for keywords to add to their tickbox forms above all else. I had the impression the role was to take some responsibility from an overworked CEO but the CEO seemed very reluctant to actually lose said control. It appears they still have no clarity as to what they are looking for as, 8 months later, and after further adverts, there is seemingly still no one in place.
