1 hour Teams interview, 2 Interviewers.
No real questions, scenarios, just broad questions and vague responses to my questions. The role itself is more of tracking and coordination similar to Release, but Service Design, Transition are not Release and Change or other processes and practices and only add value if SMEs are doing the design, mitigating key risks and issues across areas as opposed to delegating "doing" to others with only tracking, coordination and some assurance or filling of templates, documents (a tick box process only slightly better than non existent capability) Level 1 out of 5. I detailed E2E design and transition, with clear decision logic, permutations, and highlighted having experience across different maturity levels, basing my response on maturity level 3 out of 5 as there was no response to my upfront qualification.
Post interview I was informed that they would not be moving forward due to lack of role alignment, when the required level was only a subset of my experience and scale that I have consistently managed hands on. Besides, if that was the real reason, then it was evident from the CV itself, so if there were alignment concerns then the interview was pointless unless it was just "to gain free intelligence/brain dump and consulting" with no intention of an offer.
