I was initially contacted by a recruiter via LinkedIn. After a lengthy phone conversation with that person, I was given a time to expect contact from a Practice Directory. The phone interview with said director lasted about an hour and went very well, I was notified that I could expect an invite to face to face interviews when the managers were in my area. After about a month, the date was set for face to face interviews. I was flown to Dallas for 3 1 on 1 interviews, 2 with Practice Directors, 1 with their Manager. The interviews with the Practice Directors were straight forward, questions about experience, but no real description of the position. The interview with the Manager was a waste of time, he spent more time asking about the other two interviews than he did asking about me or describing the position. The manager seemed very full of himself and the company and took exception when I asked a very reasonable question regarding mass hiring and layoffs in the past. After a month of hearing about how excited Kronos was to interview me, I received a form letter from an HR representative stating that a hard choice had to be made, but that they had decided to go in another direction. The most annoying part of this process was the fact that I put out my own funds to travel to the interview and it has now been a month and I have yet to be reimbursed for receipts that were submitted two days after the interview. It's funny how a "little" situation such as that can really clue you in on how a company treats its' employees or prospective employees.

Very easy process but was kept as a bait for someone more qualified to accept the offer as I think the reason Finance Team said not to hire because of the budget constraint can't be possible after telling me that they are willing to offer me the role.
