I applied online and received an email from a recruiter within a few days. She seemed very excited to get me through the process, setting up a phone screen right away. She was on time for the phone screen and spent some time getting to know me, asking about my resume, and then talking up the company culture and company performance. After a solid 30 minutes of chatting, she said she really wanted to get me scheduled for a Skype interview with the hiring manager as the next step. She then talked up the hiring manager, saying how great she is and how many years she'd been with the company, how she'd moved up in the ranks over the years, etc., etc. The recruiter seemed eager to get me moved forward and kept saying I was a great match. She told me she would follow up with me by the end of the week... and I was completely ghosted. Follow-up emails were not returned. A couple weeks later, I got a LinkedIn request from the recruiter, but no other communication. It was one of the strangest experiences I've had interviewing in recent memory.

Took a while to get an interview but once it was scheduled the process moved along quickly. Three interviews in total, phone initially, then two in person meetings with directors.
