Interview
I received an invitation via email after a short conversation through phone call. I was told that I was able to move on to the next round of interview, which would be more technical and in form of case study. Few documents were sent to me as instructions so I knew what to expect.

Question 1
15 mins before the meeting of the client and the expert, the expert tells you that he/she need to delay the meeting over 2 weeks or indefinitely. What would you do?
Video interview - just ensure you do plenty of research both about the company and market, I didn't do enough and got caught out easily. Interviewer was quite cold and gave no indication if I was on the right track with answers at all so don't expect much affirmation during the interview.
