So far, the interview process has been great. The people I've met with have been very engaging. The HR department was helpful with coaching on who the people I was interviewing with and where they fit into the broader organization

Personal interviews. Suggest having personal interview. Reached day and time of interview. Got an interview with the HR, then the recruiting manager and then couple of his peers. The interview was on the job scenarios. Nothing special to prepare. Need to keep some actual scenarios handy to answer them.

Interview
This specific group needed a person to promote capital related analytics concepts within the company. I have worked in this field extensively so I have a deep understanding of its idiosyncrasies, and can also explain things to people of any level. I have done it at the regulatory level, as well as internally across many levels. These are all really ideas of optimization at desired hierarchy levels with various constraints. I do not think there are many people who understand this.
That day I met seven individuals. Some made a very good impression on me. But until the end I struggled trying to understand what exactly they wanted to accomplish by filling this position. To this moment I have doubts as to whether they have a good grasp of the concept and the benefits that go with it. I do not mean to belittle anyone, maybe this indicates a failure on my part. Almost a week after the interviews I was told by my HR contact that she wanted to give me some feedback. She called me the next day and gave me the news.
