You receive this after 4 interviews:
First one - internal recruiter
Second one- hiring manager (Director)
Third one - panel of 3 peers
Fourth one - VP
Fifth one- this next one

Great. Enjoy your vacation. You should be hearing from (recruiter) early part of next week on next steps, which will be a final interview with our SVP, (insert name here)
Safe travels.

Did I likely get the job??

Yeah I don't think companies schedule SVP interviews or upper level management interviews unless it's just a chance for them to get to know you. I'd say with 99% certainty you have the job unless the SVP gets a weird feeling about you

Funny enough I just came out of an interview process identical to the one you just posted. And received an offer letter after the 5th convo.

Not all processes are the same but I would say you’re looking pretty good!

I am confident you will receive an offer. Congratulations!

I wouldn’t celebrate - you should probably make sure the VP isn’t a total jerk too :) - make sure you ask questions and don’t even be afraid to soft close him - ie “based on your feedback from our conversation and the other interviewers is there any reasons why I wouldn’t be a good fit here?” Being in sales management I love when reps soft close me in interviews

I had a similar process and in fact had an in-person meeting with the CEO, CFO as well… everything was good and recruiter called up a week later after new year break and said that he got great feedback. Another week later I was told that they couldn’t move forward because they now feel that I may not be the right fit for this specific role but want to keep in touch with me for future roles!!
Still can’t get my head around what happened!!
