Been interviewing with an industry player. 3 Skype IVs, an afternoon of F2F IVs, 'final' Skype IV with the President... no contact for 3 weeks (chased) and now they want me to do another Skype IV?!

"One specific concern" 👀 this. just. got. interesting, folks!

There's a word limit.

I asked the question and this was the response:

"It’s going to be a useful exercise so that you get to meet the people you’d be working very closely with. It will be beneficial for both sides! If they love you – as the rest of the crew :) - we will be proceeding to an offer."

I'm a bit confused - the 'final' interview was with the President. Is this suggesting that the President's decision to offer could be overruled by some General Managers?

So I had the 4-way Skype interview with a bunch of Operations Directors who would be my peers. Got the offer - 32% raise on my basic salary plus a 20% bonus title. Title is Manager not Director though, and the job requires me to strategise and then implement a new operating model for the whole European business.

What to do?

Anyone heard anything similar?
