Away from the hustle bustle of the city, the London skyline in front is very distracting. Not that the room isn't very abstract, it's the clever mix of the lavish and sleek interior that is captivating, none of it is helping in toning down the pressure of the interview in the room. It has been going on for more than an hour and it doesn't seem like the three interviewers are anywhere near the end.
He glides his fingers gently on the wood while rounding the corner of the table and settles back in his chair. He has been watching the interview on the computer in his office. Out of the four shortlisted candidates, this one shows the most potential. Not exactly the level of experience they are looking for, but they could work with it.

He picks up his phone and sends a message to one of the interviewers.
'Hire the one with baby blue eyes.'
