I applied online. I interviewed at BrightAI (San Francisco, CA) in Apr 2022
Interview
Walked back on a verbal commitment to make an offer, a big red flag about the ethics in the company. Seems like there is no coherence between the recruiting team and the team making offers
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at BrightAI in May 2025
Interview
Their recruiter contacted me via LinkedIn about the role and we agreed to go forward. Four total interviews: HR > Director> CIO > CTO.
Process took about a month. They were all wonderful people. I even met one of them in person where I received a verbal offer. I was told they were still working on contract details with the customer I would be supporting, but once that was done there would an official offer.
Over the course of two months, one by one, they stopped responding. I wish there had been more transparency at the start that this position was contingent on contract award.
