Interview was surprisingly tough. Some of the questions asked specifically to give examples from previous roles, which is really tough given that I've been in my current role for 7 years!
I was definitely expecting an easier interview since I've worked with all 3 people on the panel for the past 7 years daily. Still, I think it went well overall.
Should know more in a couple of weeks - at this point I just want to know if I have the job and hence need to start planning for the move to US ... or if I don't have that role, then to restart looking for a new external opportunity here in London in order to progress in my career.
Still waiting to know more.
It's really strange when all 3 managers who were om the interview panel, are acting as if I already have that job in terms of the things they are expecting me to be doing.
To be fair - I've always sort of done that job, ever since the ex, ex guy who has that role.
Still... it would be good to finally know what I'm doing with my life!
In other news, one of the team in the US (who would work for me if I got that job), has taken medical leave due to stress - a week after being told by our overall senior manager that they are not performing at the level as expected.
Unfortunately, that person was also working for me on my current project that I lead, so I'm now a person down - and will basically have to pickup what they were doing fully myself if I want to keep things on track.
Glad to know that I can keep outputing the same amount of work as 4 people
