Didn't move onto interviews. The first step of the hiring process for this role was to complete an assessment. I thought it was odd they'd have candidates complete a 'take home test' prior to even having an initial meeting with the team.
I did appreciate that the HR representative offers to provide feedback as to why you weren't selected which not many employers do.
I applied and the coordinator reached out shortly after. Next, there was a 20 minute interview with the COO. Every question was about the company to see if I did my “research.” Shouldn’t they be selling the company to me? Finally towards the end, I was asked about my experience…not worth your time.
Definitely not sticking around for them to reach out to schedule the next phase.
