A recruiter reached out to me on LinkedIn for this position. After a 10 minute phone screen with him, a second recruiter called me to set up a HireVue interview with a third recruiter. The HireVue was just an ordinary video interview, like a Zoom interview, but through the HireVue platform. It was recorded, I believe, and I could test my screen and audio on HireVue before logging in. The interviewee asked me the usual interview questions, and also let me know that in ICON FSP, for the CSS position, there are incredibly few promotion opportunities. When I asked about employee development, she mentioned just the sort of things like when you tell your manager 'oh I want to get better at Excel' and they let you take the free LinkedIn course on Excel, not employee development towards promotion or anything else. She also let me know that I would hear back from the second recruiter, not from her, and if I had any questions for her afterward, I should send them to the second recruiter and he would pass them on to her. The second recruiter then overly focused, in subsequent phone calls (two, both with the same content and questions) on my upcoming planned time off, and whether it would align with ICON's provided time off (since the interview was near to the end of the calendar year, meaning the time off would be prorated, so less than the full time off someone might have at the start of the calendar year - I was taking 3 days off for Thanksgiving and the week of Christmas to New Years off, nothing crazy. Particularly as this is FSP - the sponsor for this particular role takes off the week of Christmas to New Years anyway, so his over-focus on this didn't sit well with me.), the end result appearing to be that any time off beyond the approved prorated amount would be unpaid and I would have to work during that time off as well. They also were only able to give me the upper range of the compensation offered, not the lower range. The whole interview process is a screen with the recruiter, a 1-hr video interview with ICON, and then 1 or 2 30-minute video interviews with the sponsor for this particular role.

Interview process was smooth. I had initial interview with the recruiter where he asked basic questions about my experience and asked to answer about my experience in yes or no.
