Elsevier interview questions

I applied through Linkedin. First, I had a call with a recruiting HR to learn about the job and see if Im a good fit. He advised me to apply to another role which matches my background more. One week later, I had a first interview with the director. It lasted 45 mins. He explained about the role, asked about my background, and how I can contribute to 3 pillars of this role. He also asked me how to explain technical topics to non-tech clients. Then I got an assignment and had 1 week to prepare. The assignment is to present my preparation for a meeting with clients. I had to draft a solution for the client and in the second interview, I got 30 mins to explain about my findings and the details of my solution. There is a template provided by HR for the presentation, so it was not very challenging. The interviewers include the director and sales managers. 2 weeks later, I received a congrats email, but it took a while for the letter offer to come. So in total I waited around 4 weeks to get the offer letter after the final interview.

Multi-round process. 1st-recruiter, 2nd-hiring managers panel, 3rd-mock presentation. Everyone is friendly and genuine. First round about your background, salary expectations, and info about the company. In the second round, they get into the weeds.
