For the EV cert we got we got a phone call asking if she could
speak to someone else to confirm that he works there.

That also wasn't what I expected. I expected that they would at
least check that he has the authority to do so, like asking the
CEO.

(It was a code sign certificate, but I expect if it's labeled EV
that the same things apply.)
