Behavioral Technical Presentation

They were upfront about the hiring timeline being two weeks and kept in touch at every stage, until they suddenly stopped. After completing four interviews, one presentation, an assessment, and discussing salary and start dates, I would expect at least a confirmation that they've gone with another candidate. They became unresponsive to calls, texts, and emails. Everything leading up to that point was very promising.

Behavioral Technical

The recruiter contacted me and we had a chat, then I interviewed with the hiring manager. After that, I had four interviews back-to-back with the team. Everyone was really nice and clearly explained the problems they needed to solve with this role and how it fit into the team's goals. I was surprised there was no communication after all these interviews. I reached out to the recruiter weeks after my last interviews and got no response. After investing so much time in interviews and being told they were interested the whole time, getting ghosted felt like a slap in the face. I would have appreciated at least a generic 'no' if I wasn't a good fit or lacked a key skill. Silence is worse.

Applied online and got a call from the recruiter about a week later. Had a screen with her, then spoke with the hiring manager who was upfront and informative. Afterwards, I interviewed with some team members who seemed inexperienced, impatient, and on edge. The previous person left due to burnout, which made sense. They're backed by a PE firm, and a manager mentioned working 70 hours/week.
