Phone interview with recruiter then an in person interview with team members. I met with multiple people of the team and all was very positive. The team seemed to want to hire me on the spot but that didn’t occur. The recruiter was not responsive after the interview. Usually recruiters will want to speak with you immediately after to see how it went and to communicate next steps. I followed up more than once and the recruiter went silent. I feel being ignored is extremely unprofessional. Send an automated decline if you don’t have the courtesy to decline the person via phone or email. Ignoring a candidate gives a bad impression and I now will not recommend anyone to apply to this company. It seemed as if they were trying to get as many people to interview and prolong the process. The recruiter even told me he falsely stated the title on the ad to bring in more applicants. Next steps were not communicated whatsoever, overall the recruiter didn’t make the experience pleasant. A decline would have been appreciated versus being ignored.
