Behavioral Technical Presentation
I went through 6 rounds of interviews and got a soft offer. While I was trying to sort out work schedules with HR, they ghosted me. The interviews weren't hard, but the whole process felt messy. It was always like, 'Oh, you need to talk to this person and then this person too.' But yeah, the ghosting was totally unexpected. They could have at least sent a quick email saying scheduling didn't work out and they were moving on, but they sent NOTHING.

It was unprofessional and poorly done. The interviewer didn't know the role I was interviewing for and got it wrong. I wouldn't want to work for a TV station after this experience. I have over 10 years of experience. I do not recommend any female interview there.

So it was a three step process. First, I talked to the sales manager and the director of sales. Then, there was a group interview with the other 10 account executives. Lastly, we had a final meeting to talk about pay and structure. It was a really nice experience, I liked it. It wasn't too hard.
