Entrevista
Everyone I interviewed was great, but there needs to be better communication throughout the process. I was waiting to go to the next round and was told to sit tight as they figure out budgets. I never heard back, so started moving onto other opportunities. About 9 months later they reached out saying they were ready to move on with the process, at which point I passed. 3 months later they finally closed the position and said I did not get the role. Again, very nice people and could have seen myself fitting in with their culture. Just took awhile to move things forward and at that point I had moved on.

Entrevista
It was a quick phone screening.
The interviewer asked what I do in my current and most recent roles which are not in food industry. She didn't ask about the prior role that was most relevant to the job, and told me my experience doesn't fit. I explained that I had relevant experience before and that I am looking to go back to food industry as I feel like I can't progress much in my current role because of the industry not being a good match, but she still said it was not the right fit.
My work experience with company names were clearly indicated in my resume, so I don't understand why I was invited for an interview in the first place if that was not what they are looking for. I was very excited about this role and spent a lot of time and effort preparing for it, it is very disappointing that I was turned down like this.
Also worth mention that the interviewer said many candidates overlooked that it was a contract role although it was mentioned in job description, but I had the job description printed out and it wasn't mentioned anywhere. It is understandable that mistakes happen sometimes, but it is disrespectful to try to cover the mistake by implying it was the applicants' carelessness.
