I was called to set up an interview. They suggested days over 5 weeks into the future. That was a red flag to me. The interview was situation based questions with two interviewers. It was seamless. The problems happened with the follow-up. I sent a standard 'thank you' and didn't hear back. A week later, I touched base and still didn't hear back. I assumed they ghosted me. Over two months later, I finally got a call to set up another video call. I was suspicious if at this point it was the second round of interviews. I scheduled it for a few days away and practiced interviewing b/c I had no idea what to expect. It turned out it was a 30-second face to face call to reject me. Honestly, I was ok with thinking they had ghosted me. The call was just salt on a wound at that point. While they were kind, this process was the most broken I've ever experienced.

Ater receiving an email from a recruiter, a pre-screening interview was arranged. The call lasted for about 5 - 10 minutes, where the recruiter asked about experience with certain software and common ID tasks. I did not receive contact again for about 2 weeks. Another recruiter contacted me to schedule a telephone Interview, where the hiring manager and her supervisor asked questions, explained what the job detailed and the location and told me they had others to interview. They informed me that they'd contact me if they felt I was a good fit for the next step in the process.
