Went through 3 rounds of interview, was asked my salary expectations during both the pre-interview screening and the first round of interview. All was seeming well until the last interview when an executive was on the call. One of the interviewers who i previously disclosed my salary expectations to and who seemingly had been satisfied prior now started grilling me with "why do you think you're worth that much" and "can you justify asking for this much". Overall really quite negative and felt ambushed considering they'd had no objections during the prior 2 stages or the initial phone call. Took over 6 weeks to get back to me to say they had another position in a different department they thought I'd be a better fit for, but would need to go through the whole interview process again! No thank you. Plus the whole wearing suits in office thing is archaic. I've since landed a job working completely remote, for more money sat in my pyjamas.

I was welcomed into a boardroom and had a very formal chat with line manager, then pair programming for a coding challenge, and finally casual chat with one of the tech directors.
