Multiple yet separate interviews with direct management, the entire team I would have been managing as well as other department heads. This took place both in person and over the phone. The overall process was over the course of 6 weeks with large gaps of time between each phase.

I was Interviewed in the beginning of Feb 2016 and kept warm by the recruiter that I had been recruited by for over a month. I was contacted by him WEEKLY (40 emails in total) to make sure I was still interested in role- for months we were in conversation about this role, conversations were all based around "expecting an offer top of Q2". Last email was on March 31st- and I quote "I will have an update for you by EOD tomorrow" then complete radio silence, no follow up..not even a response to my quick email followup. To keep me in the process for about 2 months and not even have the decency to send a quick response is very unprofessional, to deny a candidate via email is very simple. I understand things changing, not having budget, changing the role etc..but c'mon guys, this was for a management position- this is not how to build a pipeline.
