5 separate hour long interviews from:
Recruitment
Head of security
Security engineer
CTO
Head of engineering
Zero communication throughout. No indication as to what each interview was going to cover in advance. I just had to guess from the job title and linkedin profile of the interviewer. Requests for more information from the recruiters were ignored.
I was advised at the last interview that all candidates have to go through these 5 interviews. There are no stage gates. You are no closer to the position at the 5th interview than the 1st.
Then ghosted. No communication, no feedback, nothing.
Id think very hard whether you want to dedicate 5 hours of your time to a process that has such little respect for its applicants.
