Cfo Interview Questions

"Candidates are hired for a CFO position for the wisdom that they have gathered in the finance world through the years.

In addition, companies will like to see that you are interested and informed about the industry that you will be applying your financial knowledge to, so be sure to do some research on their products beforehand and how they are relevant to your life."

It was a case of talking through my CV - there wasn't much engagement from the interviewer. I think they want someone who is really really enthusiastic about blockchain etc.: fair enough, but the interviewer herself was somewhat vague in describing what it was that Ventureblick actually do and clearly wasn't a blockchain expert or enthusiast herself. Also a lot of smoke and mirrors about who the founder of the company is for some reason. But it became obvious that it's just one of the interviewer's ex-bosses (easy enough to identify on LinkedIn). Seemed a bit silly really to keep his identity hidden when it's so easy to figure out from a half-hour interview.
