Horrible interview process

Supply planner

Pros

There were none, very unprofessional

Cons

The interview process could have been run better by a group of kindergarteners. Questions were random and made up. No one seemed to know what was going on. I was told to expect a response by Monday and was left ghosted after they said I was a very solid candidate.

Rest assured, this feedback was shared and measures will be taken to address the communication gap. Thanks for your review!
