I have been following elopportunity to work with them. I interviewed with HR and it seemed to go very well. I was advised that HR would get my info right over to the hiring team and the next steps in the process were explained. I was completely ghosted. Absolutely no communication from that day on.

The first step was a phone call with a really nice HR person. The pay offered is much lower than what similar jobs pay in the market. This could be a good starting point for someone fresh out of college looking for an entry-level role to kick off their career. However, if you're a professional with some experience, you might want to look elsewhere unless you're willing to accept a significant pay cut.

Talked to the company recruiter two times. The first time was a phone call. The second time was in person. The recruiter had a list of questions that the Hiring Manager probably wrote. Then, I had an on-site interview with HR and the Hiring Manager.
