I went through four rounds of interviews with LANE EIGHT, completed a comprehensive writing and marketing project, and virtually met with the CEO of the brand. After all of this, I was ghosted by the company. I sent two follow-up messages and never received a response. I appreciate the goals of LANE EIGHT and their inclusive language and spirit but felt as though I wasted an astronomical amount of my time to not even receive a response back. Not to mention, they still have the project I took multiple hours to complete at their disposal to use. Especially in the COVID-19 era, the least an organization can do is respond to your follow-ups at a bare minimum.
