Kroll interview questions

As mandated, I applied through their talent portal but the job position was advertised in Glassdoor and other social network too. After a week, I was asked by email to confirm my notice period and salary expectation. Later I was contacted by an internal recruiter who asked my availability for a 30 minutes call with the practice Managing Director for the region. The first red flag was that, to my surprise, the position I was interviewing for has been changed to “VP I” (bait and switch case?). I pretended not to notice and shared my agenda for the following week. Thursday came and the promised call did not arrive, instead I was informed by email that the schedule has changed and that I would have been interviewed by somebody else before the MD and that his/her identity and availability would have been shared with me as soon as possible. The infamous confirmation obviously never materialized and after a full month I went on with my life. With hindsight I probably dogded a bullet because they appeared completely disorganized to say the least.

After being contacted by HR, the next step was a 90 minute assessment composed of a language section and an English section. For the foreign language section, I had to read two articles in a foreign language then write a summary of it. The second portion was to research a person and find out things. It was a bit stressful but only because I was sent the assessment late and had a different appointment not too soon after that. Not too long after completing the assessment, I had a phone interview with HR. After that, I had an in-person interview at Kroll in Reston that lasted an hour. It was split into two half hour sections with two people interviewing me during each half hour. This wasn't too bad of a process, despite the length. It was easy to talk about my resume and questions mostly revolved around my research during grad school and some behavioral questions. Around four days after the in-person interview, I received an email saying they were not going to continue to recruitment process. I was pretty surprised, but I don't mind because Reston is very far away. Overall, I had a good experience.
