Had two interviews. The first interview was fairly preliminary with the CMO. He expressed that he was really eager to fill the position and had a quick timeline to do so. For the second interview he asked me to put a 10 minute presentation together about my brand to present to him and Simio’s digital designer. I don’t normally do spec work for a company as I have an online portfolio and provide a resume that lists my skills and qualifications. I put the presentation together anyway because I was interested enough in the company and role. I had a couple days to turn it around for the second interview. I thought the second interview went great and I had a rapport with both the CMO and the digital designer. I was told by the CMO that I would hear back by the middle of the following week. I sent the customary thank you email the day after my interview. Then I was ghosted. No notice as promised and no response to my follow-up email a little over a week after my second interview. I am disappointed that they did not give me the courtesy of letting me know I didn't get the job when I took time off from work to interview and spent extra time working on a presentation deck for them.
