I talked to 3 different people during the interview process. They were all nice and straightforward with me. They seem to really want candidates who are committed to the company's mission, which I get. I hope I get a chance to work with them later on.

I went in for the renewable sales consultant job. I nailed the interview and they called me back for a second interview super fast, like 20 minutes later. They then said they thought I'd be a better fit for the Sales Operations Manager role. I told them I was really interested, and they said they'd have to check with upper management but it looked like I was going to get the job. They asked me to give them a couple of weeks to get things sorted and create the position for me. When I followed up, I found out they went with someone internal and had basically wasted over 2 weeks of my time job hunting. I really lost respect for them leading me on and then making me chase them for an answer, only to find out I didn't get it.

It was a lengthy interview process but worthwhile, involving about 4 to 5 separate conversations. They gave me a clear understanding of the role and what they expected. They answered important questions and were very transparent. I have nothing but great things to say about this company.
