Babson Diagnostics interview questions

The first step was two Phone screenings. Then 1 Phone interview with HR to set up an in person interview. On-site started with a tour of the facility then moved into panel interviews. Panel interview were made up of various team members throughout organization. To wrap up the interview you met with CEO and COO separately to discuss the tour and your time at Babson.

I initially had a very positive conversation with the HR rep who vetted my application. We had a very transparent conversation about salary expectations. She shared a range with me for the role, I shared my explicit number within that range and she assured me it would be no problem. Then - after: 1 HR screening 1 interview with the hiring manager 4 onsite interviews that required a 1 hour drive each way 1 prep/interview with the hiring manager 1 45-minute panel presentation to 11 members of the organization (again, requiring a 1 hour drive each way) After that, I was given an offer below my current salary. When I expressed my concern that this offer was not only taking a pay cut from my current job, but also far off from the conversation I had with the HR person, the Babson team made the decision to remove the offer entirely and re-structure the job description to look for a candidate with less experience and less money. The hiring manager expressed regret that she couldn't hire me and that she had "really wanted to make it work." Suffice it to say, disappointment is an understatement, especially after such strong alignment from the initial vetting process and positive reviews from the interviewing team. Clearly the HR and leadership team at Babson isn't aligned, causing wasted time on both sides.
