Worst experience ever, first interviewer (hiring manager ) calls 10 min late then in between the call his phone battery dies and he wastes another 10 min - all together we had a 10 min uninterrupted chat where he didn’t have any knowledge of my background and neither he had a idea of his company’s requirement. Later found out he was just 2 months into the job and had no idea what he was looking for - there was absolutely no follow up what so ever

It was the best interview experience I have ever had!
I applied online and received an invitation within 2 weeks.
The first call was with the hiring manager. They explained the role clearly and were interested in my background. It was more of a discussion than an interview. At the end, I was told that they would like me to meet with the team.
Over the following two weeks, I spoke for with 5 team members for 30 min each. The final interview was with the VP. The talks were insightful and of the highest quality.
The recruiters were also quite engaged during the interview process. It was the recruiter who made an offer.

I was called for an interview with the hiring manager. That went well but hiring manager was hesitant about my experience in the subject matter. I was moved on to the panel so I worked very hard to display my ability to grasp the industry, including opportunities for growth of the team. I performed pretty well in the panel, with only one of the four going pretty neutral. Two weeks later, I was asked to complete a case study that I spent many hours to perfect. I wasn’t asked to present it, just send it in. Then radio silence. I emailed back two weeks later to get a “we’re still interviewing other candidates.” Two weeks after that, “hang tight, we’re not quite done.” Two weeks after that, “what role again?” The day after that “we already hired someone.”
Apparently completing a HM interview, panel interview, and case study doesn’t even result in a call to tell me I wasn’t selected, and had to chase down the result myself.
Disgustingly unprofessional.
It was just a weird experience for the beginning. The recruiter was a little too honest from the get-go. Told me about how overwhelmed he was and how many candidates he had talked to for this position. The interview with the hiring manager was fine, normal questions. Good conversation. Then about 15 minutes after I got off the zoom call I get a call from the recruiter that they’re going to pass due to (insert reason here). I said thanks for letting me know, have a good weekend and he hung up on me mid-sentence. I will never apply here again. I’m glad they didn’t ghost me but it felt a little raw to hear that right after the interview, and then to be hung up on was a slap in the face. If that’s what HR is like I would never want to work there.
