The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Colliers (New York, NY)
Interview
During the phone interview , the talent aquastion manager told me about the position and asked me basic questions and I walked her through my work history.
Two days later, I had an onsite interview, which was more of a conversation. Hiring manager seemed nice, she told me her time line for hiring processes.
Had a follow up phone interview, a few days after my on site interview, with the talent acquisition manager, I feel that went well.
After that I didn't hear anything. I did follow up calls with both individuals and never recieved any response. A denial/rejection email would have been nice, if that were the case.
