I applied online through the careers website and reached out to a recruiter on LinkedIn. After waiting for about 3 months the recruiter finally emailed me to set up a phone screening. I completed the phone screening which took about 25 minutes and included generic topics (my background, etc.) and the recruiter said she would pass along my information to "the team". Two weeks later after following up twice, I received another email from the first recruiter setting up another call with someone else. After completing that call the woman on the phone said "I think you're really great and would be a great fit for the role and i'm going to recommend you to the hiring manager". Apparently I was lied to like many others that interviewed at J Crew because a week later I was informed that they went with other candidates.
