Following initial recruiter chat I had a 1:1 interview over zoom with role recruiting manager to discuss role requirements. Project with deadline was set prior to the interview process. Task discussed in brief during interview.

Applied online and chatted with an initial recruiter, who was fantastic, then did 3 30-minute interviews with the team. Afterward, I was transitioned to a new recruiter, who indicated that the team wanted me for the role, and they then asked me for 5-7 references to be submitted electronically through their system. This whole process lasted one month, from the screening interview to the references. After submitting references, I heard nothing for a couple weeks, at which time I followed up, and they told me they had no updates. This exchange (following up and hearing no updates) lasted for two months, after which point I received a form email informing me that I was not hired for the role. It's quite literally the most unprofessional hiring process I've ever been through in my 13+ years of working, and it reads poorly for EA, because the team I chatted with was wonderful.
