I went through a couple of weird interviews for an EA job where I would have supported two execs. The virtual and in-person interviews felt awkward; one of them even messed up my name during the in-person meeting. They expected a crazy amount of work for the offered pay. I didn't hear back after the in-person interview, which was fine, but getting no response at all, not even a generic rejection email, says a lot about the company and its staff. It's unprofessional and a waste of everyone's time to call someone in for an interview, especially to a busy part of SF, if you're not interested in hiring them.
