All asked the same question to go over my background and experience as if they did not read my CV in advance. Asked a lot of tactical and situational based questions. Did not spend a lot of time on strategic areas of success.

Started off with telling about what type of questions that the recruiter wanted to ask today and that she would be back to give me feedback within five days. Questions were very standardized. Tell me about yourself? Why did you quit your last job? How come you took that decision (almost implying, that was a strange decision)? Why did you move to the US? What would be your greatest asset for this job? Then briefly thanked me and hang up. After the phone screening I didn't hear anything back from the recruiter. Since she said she would come back I thought she would do so both with a positive or a negative outcome, but nope, nothing.

[Not a question, just a note: Given that this was a Manager to Sr. Manager level position, I was surprised at the typical ‘give an example of a time when...’ questions. I expected it to be more of a conversation, getting to know each other not so one-sided.]
