First round- exploratory with the recruiter, who cold messaged me on LinkedIn
Second round- recruiter screen
Third round- 1:1 interview with a talent dev manager
Fourth round- panel interview with two talent dev managers & associate director
Fifth round- ghosted :)
I was upfront on my first call that communication and transparency were two things a company could expect from me and that I expect from a team/company I would be interested in working with/at. Unfortunately, Carvana did not live up to that throughout the interview. I was a passive candidate so I understand if efforts needed to go toward a more active candidate but when a recruiter can’t return emails, or an interviewer asks the painfully cliche question “if you love your job, why are you looking to leave?” (again, passive candidate), it shows a lack of thoughtfulness and maturity.
I understand Carvana went through a layoff in May but be better— for your current AND future employees.
