The entire interview process was frustrating and poorly managed. I was called for in-person rounds with no prior clarity on why they couldn’t be virtual. After investing time and effort, I was rejected with vague, generic reasons like “stability,” “travel,” and “role alignment”—none of which were brought up during the interviews, and none of which hold ground given I’ve been in my current role for over 3.5 years.
More concerning was the makeup of the interview panel—individuals with significantly less experience than mine, and a co-founder whose entire career has been within the same organization. There appears to be a clear pattern of low female representation in her teams, which raises red flags around inclusivity and gender bias. It’s hard not to feel that confident, experienced women are perceived as a threat rather than valued.
This isn’t about not getting selected—it’s about being part of a process that felt performative, opaque, and fundamentally unfair. The company talks about customer-centricity, but that care doesn’t extend to candidates or internal culture. Strongly recommend reassessing your leadership behavior and hiring ethics.
