My first contact with the company was pleasant. The HR department contacted me to let me know they wanted me to come in for an interview...a month later. I thought that waiting that long was odd, but the HR contact was very nice. She asked me a few questions about salary expectations, etc. A week later, the HR contact called me again to reschedule me for a phone interview. The phone interview was to take place in just a couple of weeks. She explained to me that the hiring manager lived out of town, and would be the one conducting the interview. The interview itself was easy. In fact, I only remember being asked a couple of vague questions about my experience and goals. Mostly, the hiring manager talked about the job, what it entailed and what projects they were working on at the moment. About a week after that, I was contacted to come in for an in-person interview. First, I met with the HR contact again. She went over all of the HR and benefits information with me. Then, I met with the hiring manager, and two other supervisors working on similar projects. I was asked a few questions about my research experience and background. But, again, the interviewers mostly spoke about their projects. I sent my thank you notes, and I was on my way. About ten days after the last interview, I called the HR contact to inquire about the position. I left her a voicemail asking about the status, etc. I also sent the hiring manager a similar e-mail. About five hours later, I received a boilerplate e-mail from the HR contact basically conveying that they "didn't currently have any positions for which I was suited". In that case, why did you string me along in interviews for a month plus? I followed up and just asked for any feedback and if they kept resumes on file, and I received no reply. The interviewing experience with this company was average, but the way they brushed me off in the end really left a bad taste in my mouth. It seemed so unprofessional. I am actually glad I did not receive an offer. It makes me wonder how they treat the people that actually work for them.
