I recently interviewed for the Senior Account Manager role at Bucksense and was extremely disappointed with the hiring process. Despite the initial interviews being promising, the subsequent communication and overall process were disorganized and unprofessional.
From the start, the company emphasized the urgency of filling the position, urging me to attend a second interview a few days later. While I complied in good faith, I quickly regretted it as the process dragged on for over a month with little to no communication. Team members were on vacation for weeks, which delayed everything, and I was left feeling like an afterthought.
Then, I was informed that the position would be filled in a different country. A week later, they unexpectedly reached out again, claiming that now the team had returned from vacation, they were planning to reopen the hiring process for the original position—though they couldn’t confirm when. I agreed to continue being considered for the role, only to receive an abrupt and unprofessional message a few days later, stating they would no longer move forward with my application, without providing any explanation.
This entire experience felt disrespectful, as the lack of transparency, inconsistent communication, and abrupt rejection showed a complete disregard for the time and effort I put into the process. Bucksense needs to significantly improve its hiring practices if they hope to attract and retain serious talent. As it stands, the process is a waste of candidates' energy and reflects poorly on the company's professionalism.
