Which interview format involves different interviews with different members of the organisation?

Sequential interviews involve meeting different interviewers in separate sessions, often from different parts of the organization, across different days. Each interviewer can focus on different aspects of the role or your fit, giving you a chance to demonstrate varied strengths and to receive feedback from multiple perspectives. This format contrasts with a panel interview, where several interviewers question you at once; a group interview with multiple candidates; and a one-to-one interview with a single interviewer. So, when the format involves different interviews with different members of the organization, you’re in a sequential interview.
