I had an initial 30-minute call with a recruiter, followed by a scheduled second round interview, an hour-long conversation with a senior level team member. The process was supposed to include four additional interviews; however, after completing the second interview, I received no follow-up or communication from the company.
Despite my efforts to follow up, I was completely ghosted. Regardless of their decision, providing a simple status update or even a generic rejection email would have been a basic professional courtesy. Candidates invest their time and effort into the interview process, and failing to communicate reflects poorly on the company's professionalism and internal processes.
Based on this experience, I would not consider working with this company in the future—either as an employee or a customer. A company’s hiring process speaks volumes about its culture and values, and a lack of respect for candidates suggests deeper organizational issues.
