The interview process was very extensive, and they required me to submit work, which I felt that used to their benefit even though I didn't receive the job. The interview began with a phone screen and continued to a second phone interview with the hiring manager. After, they asked me to work on a deliverable, which I submitted (after about 20 hours work), as a requirement to move forward in the process.

I found the organization to be highly unprofessional during the interview process. I completed a phone screen and then a hiring exercise. I was then asked to schedule an hour long video interview to debrief my hiring exercise and to learn more about the position. After providing my availability I received an email stating the team needed to meet with their client to assess their specific needs and if they could touch base with me in 2 weeks. I later received an email that they decided they needed to hire locally and they were moving forward with local candidates. Why do you post a job and have people invest in a process without knowledge of your client needs? It is unprofessional to waste the time of a candidate. There is a difference between not being offered a job after the interview process is complete and being strung along because the company is disorganized.
