      Account Manager Interview

      22 Oct 2015
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Forrester in Oct 2015

      Interview

      Terrible. Appalling communication breakdown between hiring manager and HR contact. Tons of interviews then a presentation. I was told by my HR recruiter that I did a "great job" ...only to hear from the head of the team that it was a "complete bellyflop" amongst other really inappropriate feedback. Nice/professional huh? Great way to sell the company and culture.... Even so I was then asked to meet with the more senior member of the company. He was going to be in NJ in a week but I chose to assert my desire to work with the group by driving 380 miles to Boston to meet earlier. Great discussion with the senior leader - told me I could present better than 70% of the existing team and that the previous "bellyflop" comment was indicative of the kind of guy leading the group. I also suggested that I once again meet with the team lead - who was not the person the interview schedule was intended to revolve around - but given my own work schedule had to push it back an hour...I met with him and his team for close to an additional 4 hours .The HR contact told me that my request to reschedule (after all the time taken off from work) was the deal breaker....She said this second chance to meet was an "olive branch" extension lol... I have never been through a more discombobulated exchange where the HR is telling you one thing (positive indicators) and then the team lead is brutally undressing you in a manner I have never experienced professionally.

      I'm sorry and disappointed that you experienced Forrester at far below our best. Your experience is not typical. Forrester prides itself on a hiring process that is reflective of our culture: inspiring, informative, and respectful. Clearly, in your specific case, we could have done better. Thank you for taking the time to write a review. Your feedback is essential to making sure we are providing a consistently great candidate experience.

      I did a screening call with the recruiter and one interview with a hiring manager. I sent a thank you and multiple follow ups to the Recruiter (Lisa) and was ghosted. So unprofessional
