I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Royal Philharmonic Orchestra (London, England) in Jul 2024
Interview
Terrible, they read question after question with no real conversation happening. Very long process - had to chase for a final response. Terrible candidate experience. Advertised the role as part time and told me I didn't get it because they found someone to do full time hours.
