Kelliher Samets Volk interview questions

This is an unusually difficult hiring process that resulted in four separate interview appointments over a 2-week time period. The first interview was with a recruiter during which I was asked the standard interview questions you come to expect, and thoroughly screened to determine if I was a worth enough candidate to move onto the next level of interviews. The second interview was with the directors of the division of the company I was trying to get a position with. The questions during this interview were very career history focused (very in-depth) and there were also a number of hypothetical situation questions ("if you were confronted with this, what would you do?", etc.). The third time I came in, I had to take a written test where I answered about 10-15 open-ended questions (which I later found out was partially being done as a hand-writing analysis test; they actually sent my test to a expert hand-writing analysis to find out underlying things about my personality). After taking the test, I was interviewed by several of the people who were to be my peers. They asked questions focused on my job history, the types of clients I enjoy working with, my style of working, and other questions geared toward determining if I was a team-player and a someone that they'd want to be working with. The fourth interview was with Tim Volk during which I was asked to talk about various things in my portfolio (which was expected), but I was also asked a lot of questions geared toward finding out who I was as a person beyond my professional career ("what are the past five songs I've listened to on my iPod?"; "what book am I reading and what am I enjoying about it?", "what's your favorite board game?", etc.). Finally, about four days later, I was called and offered the position. Phew!
