Interview
I attended a job fair where Cogent was present. Left my resume with a recruiter there. She called the same day of event for a quick phone screen with a recruiter...two days later we scheduled an in-person interview with the Director of Sales....I was hired two days later and received a call and information to go get a drug screen and submit background check. Everything cleared and started that Monday.

Question 1
What was a day in the life like at your previous employer?
I applied online. The process took 2+ months. I interviewed at Cogent Communications in Mar 2024
Interview
Spoke with a recruiter to learn more about the position. They did not seem to know my background, spoke in generalities about the company and position, and had a very unprofessional demeanor. It did not feel like this recruiter took their listing or this conversation seriously. I feel like the interview was an entire waste of my time and it became obvious very quickly why this company has the reviews that it does.
