    Is this like a spinning class?

      I don't often agree to second / third interviews... I usually ask upfront what the recruitment process is going to be and if it involves more than one interview I decline at that point...

      That said, I haven't had any bench time so I may well change that position depending how desperate I get...

      I certainly would never agree to group exercises etc...mainly because I was always tulip at them

        All this kind of rubbish always surfaces in tough economic times by HR departments who have nothing to do.

        Usually for permy roles 1st interview should establish whether you know what you are doing, second to meet the stakeholders. Generally IME the 2nd is basically a rubber stamping and arse covering exercise, the decision to hire is made on the first interview.

        When they start doing rorschach tests and group exercises its a waste of everybodies time
        There are no evil thoughts except one: the refusal to think

          In my humble opinion, a clientco that wants to hold on of the experiments, it basically sums them up. Do you really want to work in a zoo full of lemmings?
          Who has time? Who has time? But then if we do not ever take time, how can we ever have time?
