Title: Interview progress...
Post by: JamesV6CDX on 02 November 2007, 23:08:52
I had a phone call today regarding the long interview I went to on Tuesday.

They saw five shortlisted people on this day - and out of the five they saw, there is on person they are very keen to ask back....

ME  ;D

On Tuesday of next week, I have been invited to London, to look at their systems. They still want to give me a technical assessment, and I've not been made an offer yet...

But I'm no longer competing against any other candidates....

Chances of getting the job?  ::)

So, they've told you that they're not talking to anyone else and you haven't discussed the package yet? Sounds like a good negotiating position to me.  :y

Well done,

I've done a fair amount of recruiting over the years. Having got this far the company has invested a lot of time and effort in getting to this stage so you are in a good position. They won't want to go through it all again particularly if it is a small company as the recruiters normally have other day jobs.

If you haven't met the manager you would be working for yet then maybe that is what Tuesday will be about. He or she will probably be looking to see how quickly you will be able to hit the ground and what you might be able to do about any problems they have. Then they will be able to make a case to HR about package.

good luck.
