It was a standard process - what little I took part in. I applied online and had a preliminary phone screening with a very high-ranking staffer and the two staffers who are supervised by this position. The biggest thing is that I never heard back from the woman I interviewed with following the interview - not a peep. I find this extremely rude and inconsiderate. I find it astonishing that someone who ranks so high in her organization is so irresponsible and rude to potential employees. I hate to see how she treats her actual employees. If there's one good thing about interviews that have these results, it's that I know which organizations I don't want to work for - the ones that treat people like they're lower than pond scum.

I had three rounds of interviews: an in-depth phone screen, a panel interview with two VPs and a member of the communications team, and an interview with the CEO and COO. There was about a month between the phone screen and second interview, and then a week between the second and third. I never heard anything after sending my thank you notes.
