Question 1
If I was presenting to a client and realised there was a mistake in the presentation, how would I proceed?
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at RBC Brewin Dolphin in Aug 2014
Interview
Initial communication via recruitment consultant. First interview was with hiring manager - seemed very like a good fit culturally and from a skills/quals perspective. Second interview was with senior member of team, and that seemed more bristly. Third round consisted of research sample, and here the directions provided by the company and the recruiter were imprecise. Rejected after 3rd round (for which they took AGES to get back to me!) because my numbers were not quite right.....?!! They're estimates!! You can disagree with them, but they can't be WRONG as such! Later found out they went with an other candidate (direct, so assumed they were balking at paying the commission), and then subsequently when that fell through they revised the position to a junior role.
