I recently interviewed for the Technical Manager – Salesforce & Business Reporting position at Solenis, and my experience was highly unprofessional, especially in the second round.
The first round was fine, but the second round was completely disorganized. Instead of the Hiring Manager, two random individuals showed up to conduct the interview without any prior notice. The Senior Talent Acquisition Specialist at Solenis failed to communicate that the Hiring Manager would not be present and did not even provide me with the names of the people who would be interviewing me. This lack of transparency and preparation was disappointing.
To make matters worse, the two interviewers did not even turn their cameras on, while I had mine on the entire time. This created an impersonal and unprofessional experience, making it difficult to engage in a meaningful conversation. It felt like they were just going through the motions without any real interest.
Solenis needs to improve its interview process by ensuring clear communication, respecting candidates’ time, and conducting interviews with professionalism. A candidate should not be left wondering who they are speaking to in an important interview. Based on this experience, I would think twice before considering Solenis as a potential employer.
