1) Conversation with Ex. Talent Acq, very strong positive 45 minutes 2) Ex. Talent person shared that the need was urgent to onboard for 2026.(Large scale sales conference to rollout new strategies that would come from the hire. 3) Ex. Talent said "Hiring Mgr really liked your resume!"( I have a background in highly regulated business.) 4) Hiring manager interview. Virtual. HM was 10 minutes late for a 30 minute conversation. Asked a very basic question, and interuppted to share their resume/background. This is when I should have recognized it was a problem. (Remember 10 minutes late, you dont give a senior leader enagement, and start to rush off the call. This is the comment i thought most embrassing: "It's obvious that you have passion, and had success at a high level. I am going to reach out to Talent Acq, and get more time for us. Would you care if I invited another senior leader?' 5) 12/15 first conversation, 12/18 HM interview, 12/23 email to Talent asked (Any more conversations before holiday week?) No reply 6) 01/14/26 Email sent for update. No response. (Reminded me of their "Urgent need") 7) 01/29/2026 8:10am (request for a survey on great candidate experiences???) Had not replied to survey request. 8) 01/29/2026 9:00 am emailed decline letter. As a executive professional.. I have never NOT focused on the person or conversation when in ANY phase of the hiring process. I completely understand being busy, but your company is set by culture. I saw in full view the huge disconnect between what i was told, and they perform in culture.
