My interview began with a phone call. A week later I went in to a face to face interview. I followed up about 4 days later. I was told someone should have contacted me. Another few days passed and I received an assessment test so they could see where my strengths and weaknesses were. All good so far.
Not long after the test I started getting email after email of paperwork to fill out. Appointments being set up, I think the hiring process has begun even though there was no confirmation. My mistake.
After filling out my 4th round of paperwork I am told one of the important people wants to do a phone interview with me. “Good luck” was what I was told. Should have known then.
After a month of interviews, paperwork and countless emails I had to initiate the “are we moving forward or not” email. All I was told is they were going with a different candidate. That would be okay if I hadn’t been told that two of the three Managers I’d been interacting with thought I was
the person for the job.
Lots of time wasted, personal information offered and a very good example of how to not treat a possible manager.
