I was recommended by a colleague and immediately went into meet with the hiring manager and team head. I then spoke with HR, who dragged it on for a few weeks before getting the offer. I asked about benefits multiple times before reviewing my offer, but it was ignored. It was my fault for not waiting it out -- the benefits at this company are very poor and I would have asked for a higher salary had I known the annual cost to the employee. I ended up accepting, but really lousy experience with HR.

HR recruiter found me and emailed me to schedule a phone interview. During the interview she asked me questions that made it clear she hadn’t read my resume. She also listed things she was looking for in a candidate that didn’t match the online job post. At the end of the call she told me she was close to making an offer to another candidate but she’d keep my resume on file. Why did you reach out to me and schedule a phone interview if you’re about to hire someone? She also didn’t give me a chance to ask questions. Total waste of my time.
