Zalando interview (Berlin) First stage recruiter screening Questions: Tell me about yourself Why do you want to work for Zalando Salary expectation Notice period at your current work place? (We both agreed it could take up to 3 months given that I would need to process relocation) Then he told me about the next steps & what to expect. (3 more interview after this) I thought it went pretty well and was looking forward to meeting the hiring manager in the next stage till I got an email a few days later saying I couldn’t proceed. Sucks.

Zalando used to be a professional employer, and they turned so so unprofessional. First, I was asked if I would consider relocating to Poland and I said yes, then I got ghosted. Then, I get an email from Zalando to schedule an interview for another role: the interviewer didn’t show up on the interview and even ghosted me when I asked for updates via email. Then I receive a rejection notice several weeks later. This is totally unacceptable for a company of this reputation that used to give a good candidate experience. If this is the result of your cost cutting initiatives, beware of the consequences thag treating people like this have on your reputation!
