I am going through the interview process with a consulting company X for a senior consultant position. We have had 2 phone and 1 in person interview and they have indicated that they are interested in hiring me but have not yet made an offer.
This week, I have a 4th phone interview with a potential customer of company X which I am led to believer is the last step of the process.
I am a little put off by the interview with the customer as I would expect that company X should be able to make their own determination of my skills/experience match for the role and base their decision off of that. Likewise, it seems like having another party involved with veto power doesn't work in my favor.
It's also a bit strange that prior to this phone interview with the customer, they have converted my resume to their company's format (without consulting me) and sent it to their customer.
Am I overreacting here or is this process unusual and potentially a little unethical? They are essentially leveraging my portfolio to sell a service agreement that they don't yet have personnel for and conditioning my hiring on it's success. I can see it from their perspective too, but it does rub me the wrong way.
Otherwise it seems like a good company to work for with some really bright and talented people.

IMO, this doesn't seem unusual to me.
If this is a consulting position, it makes sense that the company the consulting service is being provided to should have a say on which person(s) they would like for this specific project.
This makes sense because the consulting company is providing a service to this third-party company, one that is specific and customized for this project. Thus, they are filtering which current and prospect employees are best fit for this project.
Anyways, it is still recommended that you keep your options open until you receive and accept an offer, and apply to other prospect jobs you have in mind.
