There were supposedly 4 stages to the interview - a video interview where you record yourself responding to prompts, an actual interview with a person, an assessment and then a final interview with a couple of people. I thought the video interview was a horrible idea -if my resume is good enough to you, why make me record myself when we could just have an actual video call and have a conversation? During our zoom call, I informed them that I had never used the software they use called Airtable (although I have years of experience using several types of systems and databases and can learn a new one). They still went ahead to give me an assessment on the software; I obviously didn't pass this; I had managed to perform tasks with airtable, but didn't do it as accurately as they needed (because I never used this and I had one day to put something together). They couldn't even respond to me for days after I had sent several messages for a follow-up, only for the owner to send me what came off as a non-chalant message on Linkedin that they won't move forward with me because I didn't successfully complete a task using a software that they were aware I had never used before. Companies need to understand that you can teach technical skills but you can't teach people skills. They are not a large company,so ignoring an applicant that had invested time in the application process and was willing to learn was just rude, especially if you were very consistent in messaging initially. I had to reach out to someone else in the organization to help me find out what the decision on my application was. Terrible people skills there.
