Hi there,

First of all, congratulations on the progress in the application process thus far!

I would be happy to share my thoughts on your situation:

  • While I'm not specialized in procurement projects, I have managed several and have assisted coachees preparing for procurement-focused boutique consulting firms. Thus, I'd be more than happy to help.

You can find more on this topic here: How to succeed in the final interview round.

If you would like a more detailed discussion on how to best prepare for your upcoming interviews, please don't hesitate to contact me directly.

Best,

Hagen

Technically I'm not a specialist here, but I am happy to help. I've built procurement IT systems (military acquisition) and have coached people in procurement.

You might be able to find a true specialist coach, but, if not, feel free to reach out as I have procurement cases and can support!

Looks like there are some good coaches with experience in the field and with specific cases. I think what you are asking for makes complete sense.

I would just highlight that there is a bit of a technical aspect to that interview, meaning that on top of that you should extensively research on how to optimize procurement and procurement functions - this is a key part of your preparation (which you should then complement with a dedicated coaching session).

DM me if interested, 1st session is 50% off.

Hi,

you should familiarize yourself with the different levers to optimize procurement operations to use as a general tool kit for the cases you may encounter. So whatever you can read up on the functional area (e.g. best practices, trends) will be helpful. It makes sense to find a coach with a strong expertise in procurement to get additional pointers or example cases.

Best of luck

I had a final round interview for a manager role at a tier 2 company. HR said feedback was positive but they’d assess other candidates too. It’s been 10 days with no update. Is this normal or should I take it as a silent rejection and move on?
