The Interview seemed rushed and manager appeared unintereseted from the onset. I was not given the opportunity to share the full scope of my experience before the interview was concluded.
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Citadel
Interview
Headhunter screen, 1 hr call w hiring manager, 5 hr on-site. Got positive feedback as it was coming in post interview, then a bit of a runaround and silence for 3 weeks. Had to ping headhunter for update/feedback and think they went with someone more experienced in the end. On-site experience was first class and very professional, post on-site experience and communication were a bit disappointing. But can’t be too upset since a lot of recruiting is like this anywhere
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Standard resume walkthrough; talked thru tough searches, motivations; metrics like pass through and closing rates. Bit surprised by the amount of duplication between interviews, content didn’t feel very structured
The first round was a 45 minute long video chat with a lead in recruiting. I honestly enjoyed the interview itself but they ghosted me after the one call. I am not shocked as I have heard such negative things about the company, but I was giving it a shot and hoping for better.
