A recruiter contacted me late in December, I had a couple of screening questions with him. Prior to the holidays I got the first interview with the hiring supervisor (SVP of supply chain). Video call went well, they scheduled a new video call in the beginning of January. Mid-January I was asked to go to Nashville for an in person interview with 6 people. From 8:30 to 2:30pm. It went well and on the following week I did an assessment test on my personality/leadership and a few days after I had an interview with the psychologist. On the last week of January I received a call from the recruiter saying that I did really well and they would contact me shortly with a decision. I followed up after 1 week, no answer. On the second week of February I discovered that they interviewed someone that was listed on my resume as one of my references. the problem is that this was very unethical since they asked me specific questions about him during my interview. Many times I said that if there was any further questions I would be available to answer at any time. I wanted to make their process easier. They went completely dark on me for 2 more weeks (1 month total) with no feedback. By the end of February, I saw on Linkedin that the same position was posted again. When I asked about it, in the following day they closed the listing and replied saying that they made an offer to someone else. I accepted their decision with no problem, but then I asked for a feedback. They said that the person chosen had experience in Mexico and that was the decision factor. My point is, I was never asked during the entire process any specific questions about how to solve specific issues in Mexico (which by the way I have more than 13 years of experience). So how did they come with that conclusion? To be honest, if they treat people like that, it speaks volumes about their company culture, processes and leadership.
