Altogether several interviews drawn out over 6 months and across two continents, plus written assignment and presentation on my ideas and suggestions for directions the role could take. Looking back, I feel the whole process was a fishing exercise to get ideas - in the end they hired from their own network. After being considered for a second role, they refused to give me a firm rejection before reposting the same job. As if the appalling interview process wasn't bad enough, they took over 3 months, and over 20 emails from me, to reimburse my interview expenses of a few thousand pounds. The incompetency and disregard shown by the staff can only reflect on what the World Economic Forum must be like as an organisation.
