As you hoped, your review is viewed as constructive, we’re appreciative of your perspective and find it helpful. Likewise, we hope that you’ll find our perspective helpful to you.
Our CEO is known for accomplishing more in a single day than most people do in two weeks. This attribute has been instrumental in our success and record-breaking growth. Nevertheless, we understand that rescheduling can be inconvenient. Considering your candidacy for the high-level position of "Director of Marketing," we recognize the value of your time, as you too achieve significant milestones daily. Consequently, we rescheduled the 15-minute call outside regular business hours as a gesture of respect for your busy work schedule.
As you noted, our CEO spoke to you while en route to another business meeting, this again, was her way of extending a courtesy to you in speaking as soon as possible since she was unable to speak to you at the initially scheduled time.
As to the nature of the conversation of the phone call, it’s important to understand that we view this as a high-level position. Your resume, provided ample evidence that you possess the necessary skills and experience, therefore, you were invited to have a phone call with the CEO, which served as a preliminary screening for culture-fit. Specific skills, experiences and qualifications relevant to the role are to be assessed by our Sr. VP of Sales and Marketing in subsequent in-person interviews.
We’re in the process of building out our entire marketing team and all candidates are being considered not only for their fit for the Director of Marketing role but potentially other positions on the team. Therefore, discussions regarding salary range and commission structure would be premature until all candidates have been evaluated to establish our ideal Marketing Team.
Confidentially listing job postings is a common practice among businesses. This is done to minimize the influx of calls and emails from headhunters and recruiting agencies that result from public postings. It is a measure we prefer to take to avoid such disruptions.
Once again, we’re grateful for your feedback and we’re glad Glassdoor provided us with this opportunity to clear the air.
