Chaotic six month interview process. I had a series of one on one interviews with the hiring team in Feb and Mar, then in July was asked to do a case study with no opportunity to presentation or discussion with HM. Told by HR in September that the team hired someone with more leadership experience. Later found out the incumbent is a new grad.

Recruiter rushed me into a phone interview offering little flexibility to schedule the following week. She was not very knowledgeable about the role, having a general uneducated description about the key responsibilities. There was a lack of transparency about the salary range. This particular recruiter told me that I did not sound interested in the role based on my questions and answers. I was perplexed by this assumption. I would describe the entire phone interview process as amatuer and unprofessional.
