Was referred by a friend so was able to talk with the recruiter very quickly. Discussion touched on my experience and interests. We eventually talked salary range for the role and though a cut it was very workable as I was looking to learn and grow. The recruiter was easy to talk with and asked good typical questions. All was good with my resume passed to a hiring manager. The hiring manager a VP asked similar questions and explained more about the role. He hadn't finished the business case for what the roles were to change in IT and sounded inexperienced. He too asked about salary expectations where his range was misaligned with what the recruiter said. I didn't get an offer and was later told they picked a candidate with more experience (I had >25years).
