The most horrible, inefficient and downright disrespectful interview process i've ever had in my career! The actual recruiter responsible for my interactions was super polite and helpful. - Week 1, interview with the recruiter who then passed to the next stage with hiring manager. - - Week 2, phone interview with hiring manager which went very well and passed to the next stage of on-sites. - Week 3, onsite interviews with 4 senior leaders that went very well and they all agreed that they will have a decision very soon and they would provide feedback in the next few days. - Week 4, No news other than "we have no news yet or feedback" - - Week 5 comes and they are letting me know that the team really liked me and that they only need to interview one more candidate so i should wait till they do that. - Later on Week 5 - "We loved you but we don't think you have the right amount of experience for the role, but we would love for you to consider the lower level role which matches your experience. Although I was very disappointed, I respected their decision and I still accepted to go for the lower position, and to my surprise they said "ok now you have to go through the entire process all over again with on-sites etc". I'm sorry but is your interview process, so useless that even after having 2 onsite visits and interviewed by 5 different senior leaders, you still don't know if i'm a good candidate for the lower level position? In any way, just because I respected the organization and what i thought it represents, i accepted to go through the whole process once again. - Week 6, I had my additional round of onsites (3rd time) with another 4 people and here is where things went even worse with the process. To start off, i interviewed once again with the hiring manager (3rd time by now) so she could give me more info about the lower level position and reassured me that this should not take long since she was so impressed the first time around, and i thought "fair enough". Then i had the next interviewer.... well let me tell you Glassdoor, you need to train your people HOW TO BEHAVE during interviews. She comes in and the first thing she says with a very disgruntled face "This is such a bad day for me....oouuff but anyway" and puts on a fake smile.... first red flag... then with every answer i was giving her she kept making weird faces and rolling eyes... Again, I tried to compose my self and just blame it on the fact she had a bad day.... then she proceeds to ask me 2 different questions starting both of them with the sentence "Erm, I really have doubts about this xyz ability of yours.." "I find it strange that you are leaving your previous job although you have been so successful".... What's strange about that? At that stage i was really getting disappointed. Then i had to connect to their video conference to be interviewed by 2 more members. The audio system wouldn't work and by the time we fixed that, he only had 15-20 min instead of 30min and he opens it up by saying "we don't have enough time so i won't ask you any questions but I'll just answer yours"... I'm sorry but i thought this round was important so the team would get to know me but he has no questions for me??? anyway, i start firing off questions and he keeps mentioning how stressed he is and how unsupported he feels at times by his manager cause she has no time..... I was getting a little bit uncomfortable but still I tried to actually calm him down as if I was the consultant... very odd! Then the next person appears on the video conference for the final interview (9th at this stage) but the audio troubles continue so again he only had 15-20 min during which he asked me couple of questions and that was it. Couple of days later, she calls to say that they are interviewing another candidate and then they will decide....AGAIN??? Even after 3 onsites, 9 interviews, 2 positions which the last is suggested by you and still not happy but not letting me off the process. - Week 8, i get the dreaded call that the team "loved me and my experience" we they think they have a candidate that is a better fit and that they apologize for what they put me through..... You apologize for what you put me through?? That was the most outmost disrespectful and humiliating interview process I've ever experienced. And that's from a company that prides to be holding the Bible of Employer Branding and their core business is advising companies of how to improve it??? Treating candidates like a number and not as human beings and not dragging me for 8 weeks, countless interviews, suggesting to me and asking me to consider positions that at the end you will reject me once again after an appalling interview round?? I was the biggest supporter and believer of that company and thought it would be my dream to work for them but after this horrific experience, I'm even deleting their app. GLASSDOOR YOU FAILED ME!
