These positions were to be "Work From Home." After speaking with the organization's recruiter on the phone for a brief interview, I was informed that there were some assessments I needed to complete prior to an interview with a hiring manager could take place. I took no less than SIX assessments, one was 52 pages in length! The recruiter then called me and let me know that while the position(s) were work from home, the interview needed to take place at their Detroit office. After making the 4+ hour round-trip commute, one of the first things the recruiter said to me was, "While these are work from home positions, the orientation would be at the Detroit office, Monday-Friday for 4-6 weeks." It seems that is a piece of information that should have been disclosed prior to the interview! I could either make the round trip commute of 4+ hours every day, or I could stay at a nearby hotel for 4-6 weeks. In addition, all staff mtgs. were to take place at the office as well (at least once per month). As kind as they were, I would never had gone on the interview, had they disclosed the truth in a timely manner. Perhaps they will take into consideration how important these "details" are to an applicant, and proceed in a more thoughtful manner in the future. I sent the recruiter an email the next day, and informed her that I would like to withdraw from consideration, due to the commute requirement. Interestingly enough, a few hours later, I received an email stating I was no longer a fit and they were going with another candidate. A little salt in the wound anyone?
