Not just right now. I have been / am interviewing for VP / CTO roles and by god the process is so draining. By the time I get to interview with the CEO (3/4 times so far) the process gets dragged for weeks and months. The requirements for the positions changes out of nowhere or some exec is on vacation. For example, I interviewed for $25 billion market cap retailer for a VP position. All was great until an SVP which I had already spoken to wanted to talk to me again because they wanted to some question about some very random thing like what would you do if you didn’t know what to do. This after 8 hours of interview with CIO, 4 VPs, 2 SVPs and several directors. None with engineering degrees. They all had been at the company for 13-14 years.This lasted for 3 months starting October and final rounds in December. Final rejection in mid January. Another Was over 6 months.
