The interview felt abrupt. From what I can remember, all of the questions were fairly complex, two-part questions combining project management and client relationships, with no warm-up or role context provided first. The interviewer essentially just said "Hi, welcome, how are you, I have 3 questions today" and then had to pivot to a dashboard to read the questions. Follow-up questions about Salesforce implementation and urgent leadership requests were reasonable but extremely open-ended. Without understanding the team's specific pain points or priorities, it was challenging to know what level of detail or which aspects to emphasize. I think candidates would benefit from a brief introduction to help frame their responses. The interview style favors those comfortable making assumptions and speaking broadly without really any guidance. Hate to say it, but I felt like I might as well have been speaking to an AI agent. The company, people, and interviewer all seem like great people with fantastic experiences that will bring good things to the world of philanthropy; however, I am not sure their hiring process is very polished.
