A Talent Partner meets with candidate for coffee, drinks or other at venue agreed upon to "feel" your personality, qualifications, quality of contacts. Don't remember hearing any "technical" questions. They tempt you with $ income potential.
Later invited to local office for joint interview with "higher" partner. That is when they describe how their process of matching candidates to companies and sourcing of interim jobs works. Surprisingly no finance specific questions, more about understanding what background you bring to table and your networking.
