I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Korn Ferry in May 2021
Interview
4 steps of interview process. 1st with TA, 2nd with team lead, 3rd with global lead, 4th with manager. It was very quick and smooth process ,where I was able to fully understand the scope of the role and what is expected from me
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
questions around motivation, market knowledge and previous experience
Felt like the interviewer was busy and didn't want to be there.
Told me they have a strict budget for this role (very low and pretty unliveable) - if there is a strict budget why is this not added to the job ad, it wastes both the interviewer and interviewee's time.
Told me they would get back to me and never did.

It was a great experience. The briefing was very thorough, and they were very professional, they have asked your experience, including specific examples and a time you faced failure? What did you learn from that experience？
