My process had the following steps: - I applied for the role of CRM Insights Manager and sent my CV and cover letter. - I was called for a screening interview with the recruiter. - They sent me a case study, which I should complete in 5 days. There were many questions to answer, but that helped me to build a compelling presentation. - I was invited to the office. First interview was with the hiring manager and I had to present him the case study results and do a short oral case interview (similar to management consulting interviews). - Second interview was not technical, but a fit interview to understand my motivations to work at GetYourGuide - Third interview was with the head of the area I would work in (Business Development). We decided I was not the best candidate for the role I applied, but I could be of more help in another role. - There was a reference check (the hiring manager needed to talk to someone who previously managed me) - Offer made - Offer accepted

The overall interview process spanned nearly two months, starting with an HR screening and culminating in a final interview round with the Director of the team. It included an interview with the Hiring Manager, the submission of a case study, and a subsequent presentation to the Hiring Manager along with a relevant stakeholder. Following these discussions and presentation, there was a stakeholder interview and a final Behavioral round with the Director. Although the interactions were positive throughout all the rounds, I received rejection feedback after the final round, which focussed on the 3rd round (Case Study), leaving me with questions as to why I progressed to the subsequent interview stages. In the closing statement of the final round, there was mention of the delightful food I could anticipate in Berlin. However, the rejection email came as a surprise, and unfortunately, it lacked specific feedback.
