The outcome of this interview--particularly the final stages--was very surprising to me, given the good things i had heard about MobiTV. I had a promising phone interview with the hiring manager (CMO), and was invited to come in for an interview about a week later. I met with the CMO and five other executives. I had a very good feeling about the interviews, particularly with the CMO. At the end of the day, I met with the HR assistant, with whom I had spoken on the phone for the initial screening. At that time, he indicated that my prior salary was much higher than they were offering, but I told him that salary was not my first consideration, and to put it aside for now. When he met me at the end of the interview day, he asked me if I had any other interviews with other companies. I told him, truthfully, that I had one the coming week. Strangely, he asked me if I would cancel the interview if MobiTV made me an offer that day. I was quite taken aback, given that the executives would not by then even have had a chance to discuss my meetings with them. I told the HR assistant that I wasn't sure, and that I think that all concerned would probably want to discuss it. I sent my thank you emails to everyone with whom I met. The only response, from the CMO, was to ask if I would be available the following week for a phone follow-up to gauge my interest and fit. I emailed him back with available dates and did not hear back for two weeks. So I sent a follow-up email to the HR assistant and also heard nothing. Then, I received an email from the CMO saying he would like to consider other candidates during that week and that HR would keep me apprised. Two weeks passed without hearing anything, so once again I emailed the HR assistant. Nothing. Left a voicemail. Nothing. Another week passed, along with my interest in working for MobiTV. However, for the heck of it, I sent an email to the CMO asking if there might still be an opportunity for me, inasmuch as I hadn't heard anything. Finally, the HR assistant called me back and told me he had "bad news', that they were considering making an offer to another candidate, and it had nothing to do with whether I could do the job, but rather that the other candidate didn't work for a competitor. (Neither had I). On that same day, I saw the position newly listed on two other internet sites where the position had not been posted before. Overall, a pretty unprofessional process, but at least I dodged a bullet.
