I was ghosted by the company, even though they reached out to me first. It was a really bad experience, probably the worst I've had. I wouldn't go back, especially after I spent so much time on it. They also made me wait 30 minutes during one of the steps.

It took months to get an offer, felt like they ghosted me before the hiring manager round, which was one of 3 rounds total. At points, I thought I wasn't getting the job because they took so long to get back to me, but it turned out I was the top candidate. Felt slow.

Behavioral Technical

I was first reached out to by HR in the department because of my prior work with them. They suggested I apply for this new role. After I applied online, Marriott's recruiters reached out and scheduled a phone interview. During the call, they asked me standard situational questions based on my past experiences and why I'd be a good fit for the job. Then, I had an in-person interview with the hiring manager for the position. Although it seemed like I was sure to get an offer during the interview, the recruiter was slow to get back to me with an offer. I had to check in with the hiring manager, who mentioned the delay was due to slow reference checks.
