Had a quick call with Talent, then a phone interview set up with the Regional Manager. It was pretty simple, the RM was easy to chat with and was upfront about his experiences at the company. I think they're a good company that had a rough patch according to employee reviews. I only did 1 round of interviews because I withdrew my application for a better offer with my current employer. I would've liked to know what the next steps were. I was surprised the first interview wasn't on Teams or Zoom, it's 2022 and we have the technology... I'd recommend to their managers to use the technology we have today instead of a phone call; I prefer to see eye to eye and I'd imagine they would too for professional roles. Overall, an okay experience.

Behavioral Technical Case
Overall a good interview experience. The Hiring Managers were really enthusiastic about Rain Bird and did a thorough job screening candidates. I felt like I got a really honest perspective on the 'ups and downs' of the position. They kept mentioning they only hire 'the best of the best.' Even though I'm not currently working for Rain Bird, I see this interviewing opportunity as a positive experience that moved me through several levels of a tough interview process. They definitely know what questions to ask and get through them quickly, so be ready with solid answers that can lead into the next question.

Behavioral Technical Group
The interview process was long, and offered no definite end. It consisted of a phone interview, an in-person interview, and a day-long ride-along with a potential colleague. I thought I was progressing well after these initial stages, receiving an email confirming things had gone well after the ride-along. However, afterwards, the interviewer, the company, and my contact inside the company all went silent for weeks. No further feedback was given, except for one call stating an internal candidate was in the lead. I was told I was in limbo and was asked to call back by the end of the month (September). My calls in early October went unreturned, and my contact inside also seemed uninterested. I followed up about once every two weeks, sent thank you cards, and did everything professionally expected. Despite this, there was no response from the company.
