Got an email from the recruiter the same day that I applied to the role asking me a couple of basic questions about my experience, salary expectations.
I then did not hear from the recruiter for another week. I then get an email asking me to fill out responses to a couple of behavioral questions. I followed up a few days after sending these over and the recruiter claimed that my information was sent to the hiring manager - this was 11 days ago and I've been ghosted when I followed up most recently.
Overall, I'm just really disappointed in how unprofessional this process has been. I didn't actually have a single "interview" despite being "in consideration" and if I was no longer in consideration that information was never conveyed to me.

I had to type out responses to the following:
Can you provide an example of a time where you had limited tools/resources and on a short deadline to provide a business recommendation based on several data inputs and qualitative information? How did you approach the problem, and what tools did you use? (looking for an answer that seems pragmatic and ultimately provided a minimum viable solution given tight constraints)
Can you provide an example where you received a large data set and were asked to provide a business recommendation? How did you provide these recommendations? What was the outcome of that recommendation, either good or bad and were there any measurable business outcomes from your recommendation? (looking for a response where there was interest in follow up from the candidate. Not looking for someone who just cleans and provides data sets)
Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto 4 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Caterpillar (Chicago, IL) nel mese di lug 2023
Colloquio
1st round - HR - Roles and responsibilities about previous experiences
2nd round - Business Case study - Needed to prepare data for different suppliers in Excel and then prepare different analysis based on given questions.
3rd round - Manager interview and follow-up on Business case study.
After the 3rd round, they told me that I don't have optimal communication skills to handle clients questions.
