PNC Financial Services Group Manager, Internal Communications interview questions

The interview process began with a phone screen with the recruiter, followed by a phone interview with the hiring manager. Both had the goal of determining basic skills and fit. The next step was a 1:1 interview with the hiring manager. In this interview, she asked more detailed questions about my experiences and presented several, "How would you handle ____?" questions. While not requested, I did take a portfolio of my work samples, which was helpful. There was a several week gap after that interview, but the recruiter maintained contact and did let me know that they wanted me to interview with other members of the team, but scheduling was an issue. I interviewed with the hiring manager's boss and two peers, each 1:1. Questions mostly were about my experience. I did get asked how I would define the process of writing a strategic communications plan vs. actually implementing it and what books am I currently reading. The last round of interviews was on a Thursday. Monday evening I had a call from the recruiter telling me that they were pleased with my interview and wanted me to complete a timed writing test, which I completed on Tuesday. Within two days I was the candidate of choice and was asked for salary requirements. The official offer was made the following Monday.
