The interview process was pretty straightforward, and at first, it seemed promising. It involved the typical questions in a relaxed setting. I had this interview back in June 21 and never heard anything about the outcome until I got an email in December 21 saying I was unsuccessful. Honestly, waiting six months to share the result without any feedback feels a bit excessive.

Had a professional phone interview to introduce the position and answer my questions about details and compensation. Then met the Director for a face-to-face interview. It was professional, realistic about the position, and really explored my background while also being open to hers. After starting, there are required online courses for compliance and weekly webex classes for continued education and growth. I've been with the client for nearly a year and while there are growing pains, the Pontoon Management Team has always been supportive, providing quick answers (within 24 hours). Our opinions and ideas are respected. The account is new, but we've made great improvements as a team, thanks to the management. Colleagues agree; no one complains about management. I'm happy and look forward to growing with Pontoon.

I was contacted via LinkedIn for this role. I had a quick phone chat with someone from TA. Then, another person called me a few days later for another phone interview for the exact same job. It seemed like the recruiters weren't talking to each other. They said I'd hear back in 4 days with positive feedback, but I didn't get any calls or replies to my emails. After about two weeks, I got an automated rejection email.
