This was an initial screen. The recruiter was a little snippy, borderline rude, during the conversation. She kept asking the same question in different ways. I think the question of “Why do you want to work for ...?” needs to go away. If people are UNEMPLOYED, and the company is hiring.,, THATS WHY THEY WANT TO WORK FOR YOUR COMPANY.

1. Phone screen with Recruiter 2. Online assessments x2 3. Video interview with hiring manager 4. Online assessment x1 5. Undergrad and graduate transcript line item review 6. Professional Reference Check x3 7. Onsite interview - 3 hours, 3 individuals Main issue was that, after all of the effort put forth, the decline came through a very impersonal email, basically a form letter response. Not making the time for a 2-minute phone call after demanding so much of my time and effort to even apply is dismissive, unprofessional, and discourteous. I feel that any company who disregards basic professional protocol with candidates, even ones not being made an offer, would treat an employee no better in an uncomfortable or difficult HR situation.
