interview

went for another round of interview with co b. this time with the head of the department. 

i must say the chemistry was not up to my expectations. thinking back, there were moments where she made me feel uncomfortable from her line of questioning. i was asked to explain what i meant when i wrote "i set up a specific system" in my résumé. thought i was an easy question and went on to talk about how i looked at the business, adopted a systemic look at the organisation and translate these into specific frameworks and processes to drive initiatives. and as i explained, she interjected and said things like "i am so-and-so and i know what this is all about, so tell me exactly what you mean when you say this.... specifically..." omg, i was literally made to explain processes in a step-by-step manner. totally not something i would expect for a senior level role that i was interviewed for.

so... yeah, the chemistry was not ideal. and to think this will be someone i will be reporting to if i join them, the interview kinda reinforced my apprehensions about this company. 

hmmm...
