It started off quite well. I was reached out to by someone who I had a great connection with and we spoke about my background and desire to grow and potentially move to a Gallery Manager position once I learned the brand (a position for which I was more than qualified for. ) I discussed my only concern with my past experience with the recruiter and she assured me this was no issue at all and that with the rest of my background and experience this would not be a factor. I next met with the Gallery Manager and again a very pleasant experience and great conversation, I asked questions about her goals and about RH and the future of the brand and she gave me some "homework " which I thoroughly enjoyed. I had a phone interview with another recruiter and it went well with expected leadership and hiring questions. I next went to the HQ in Corte Madera and had another very enjoyable and informative meeting with one of their executives and toured their location in Corte Madera, again discussing things I would need to focus on in this new environment and of course my background. I was again informed thsr any concerns I may have with lack of experience in a certain area were no concern at all. Then another virtual interview with another executive in New York. The overall experience was engaging and exciting and I was sold on the brand. I got a call shortly after that they loved me, but the exact reason I mentioned in the first interview and several times later were why they decided I was not a good fit for Gallery Assistant Leader. I was later approached for a Gallery Leader position in a different location? I now had the one thing on my resume that was missing before.

Phone Call - casual interview for screening, salary expectations, thoughts about RH In person interview - interview with head designer and store manager, talked about design experience, work experience, thoughts about RH, work expectations, Experience was okay. Nothing special.
