The recruiter connected with me on LinkedIn. The interview went fine. It took two weeks to set up a second interview with the SVP of employee/candidate experience. She was a bit late and had to leave on time. She made a comment that was a red flag: "We work hard, but we play hard." She then suggested I meet with the hiring manager. The recruiter took over a month to get back to me, saying he would schedule the interview. I never heard back, which was fine because I didn't want to work for a company that made such a terrible first impression. The job probably isn't real; I bet this company posts jobs to make it look like they're growing.

Behavioral Presentation
The recruiter has been great at keeping me informed, but I was surprised when they offered me a panel interview with executives as my only official interview besides the initial phone screen, calling it a "one and done" process. I couldn't make the interview because it was scheduled for the very next day, but I would have been interested to see how it would have gone. Getting hired after just two rounds if you're qualified sounds fantastic! I was just taken aback because my previous interview processes typically last 4-6 weeks.

Behavioral Technical
Applied through school and got a 45-min phone interview with the recruiter. Then the recruiter set me up with a hiring manager, but they weren't ready to hire. The recruiter then tried to arrange an interview with another hiring manager at a different location, but that position was filled before I could interview. Three months later, the recruiter set me up with a hiring manager for a 1:1 interview. It went well, and the manager said I was exactly what they were looking for, but I didn't get an offer. It would have been better if they were more organized and didn't have me going back and forth between interviews.
