I was approached on LinkedIn by a recruiter, the phone call went great! Then had another interview with an HR rep, that went great also, I had another interview in person with the hiring manager. It was pleasant, then came the ghosting! No follow up on the candidacy for over a month. Completely ghosted! As you see in another post, they have a tendency to ghost.

The hiring process was a bit confusing. I spoke with two different hiring managers and even their boss. One manager said they wanted me on their team, and another told me I was a perfect fit and shouldn't wait. But then, a few days later, the recruiter called to say they weren't moving forward because they weren't sure if I was a strong enough sales "hunter." I didn't ask for more details because I was already put off by the lack of diversity in their senior leadership, especially for an HR company. I've seen pictures on LinkedIn since then, and the teams are all white.
