Initial phone interview with HR. After this, invited into interview 1:1 with three VP / Director level staff members in audit. Prior to 1:1 interviews, one is required to filled out a complete employment application, which HR neglected to mention prior to the date of the interview.
1:1 interviews revealed dissatisfied or jaded employees going through the motion with new audit MD (Managing Director) trying to make sea changes. Intensity of interview was average with reciting of employment chronology and few generic questions on why I would want to work here and why I am leaving.
Invited back a week later to interview 1:1 with two MDs: head of audit and his lieutenant. Second in charge is cut & dry audit guy. Head of audit is former ML senior auditor. Good interview with Head of audit and very awkward interview with lieutenant as he talked more about his experience than ask of mine.
Feedback from HR the next day was positive; then no communication. Two weeks later, recruiter informed me that they passed on my application but HR could not provided reason. Strange.
Three months later, recruiter informed me that DTCC had pulled the position off the market, unfilled.
