Behavioral Technical Presentation
I was really excited about this position and had history with the company. After 4 long interviews with multiple people on each, they ghosted me. It's totally fine if they choose another candidate, change the scope of work, or decide not to proceed, but it's not okay to ghost someone after 4 interview rounds. They should at least let a person know they are going in a different direction.

Avoid Food Bank NY at all costs. 6 months out this place still haunts me. Wildly unprofessional and disrespectful staff. Unorganized and haphazard interview process. Way too many rounds. Bad communication from start to finish. Interviewers were changed out last minute and replaced with unprepared interviewers who were constantly late for scheduled times and unclear what job they were interviewing for. They wasted my time with 5+ rounds and then ghosted me entirely. They can't be bothered to respectfully close the loop with candidates which should tell you exactly how this workplace functions.

It was a pretty laid back vibe, professional though. They asked me some basic questions about my past work and experience for the job. They also wanted to know why I was interested in working for the Food Bank for New York. If the first interview went well, I was told to expect more interviews the same day.

My interview process for this position included a phone screening and three subsequent interviews, with the final one being in person. I wanted to share my experience because from the initial phone screening to receiving a generic rejection email took four and a half months. This is a low-level job for which I am well qualified, and while I felt respected by the team members, the overall process felt disrespectful. At every step, timelines were unclear, and I had to follow up multiple times after waiting a couple of weeks. I was particularly upset by the 'no reply' email thanking me for my experiences, as a single sentence of personalized feedback would have softened the rejection, especially since I had rearranged vacations and discussed this job for nearly five months. It leaves a negative impression of the organization and suggests disorganization. I don't think I will apply there again, despite many people from my current non-profit eventually working there and currently making my current organization look very good.
