Barry asked Dean why in this day and age does the NOMCOM do
in-person interviews?
Eliot and someone else (if I recall correctly) interviewed me remotely.
Without going into the details, based on my experience in this
NOMCOM, remote candidates were put at a disadvantage, because
numerous aspects of communication (body language, additional
humanization, eye contact, contact outside the interview, etc) were
lost over conferencing.
As a general comment, I'd say that the human element and the lack of
contact outside of the interview is a disadvantage.
* On the other hand, if people are required to travel to a
conference, then only sponsored or rich people can do the
job. This is no small road block.
Yes.
There is also the matter of the job description:
