Was invited to interview via referral. Had a quick call with a sales manager to go over experience and discuss the position followed by an in-office 3 hour interview with various team members involving a role play. The in-person was easy excluding situational questions based on prior experience. “Tell me about a time ____ happened and how did you react” type questions. For an advertised entry level role, the questions seemed excessive. If you don’t have a specific example, they don’t react well. Overall, the process was smooth, but I did receive conflicting information on next steps following the in-person. The recruiter had instructed that I would hear back next day, which seemed soon, but was appreciated given a multiple offer situation. The recruiter followed up a day later than expected to schedule a call to go over “next steps,” which I incorrectly assumed would be positive. Instead they scheduled a call to deliver a rejection and immediately went into unrequested negative feedback. In the future, I’d recommend recruiting not teeing up next steps with a candidate with such positive language, as it set me up for an awkward and unappreciated conversation.
