Had a 45 min call with one of the designers (not on the hiring team) for first round. And then I got a pass from HR for the next round which included a design challenge, and a 2 hr virtual onsite interview. I am then sent an email less than 2 days before the interview (literally at 10:24PM) "The team had a chance to sync and it seems we’re not the right fit for your skills at this time. We are proceeding with other candidates at this time will not be proceeding with the virtual onsite this week....we are predominantly looking to hire Senior designers." This is has really left me a terrible taste for this company and hiring standards. In both my resume and during my first interview and call with HR, I have told them I may not be the most experienced. So why waste 3 weeks fo my time (including a weekend to do a design challenge) only to be told I'm cut. Why waste 3 weeks of my time?

I applied via Flexport's website and was contacted by a recruiter there. We set up a time to chat, but he didn't show on time. Ten minutes into the agreed meeting time, he emails and asks to reschedule—all good, stuff happens. I log on at our rescheduled time and...no show. I emailed him and he didn't reply. I find this very disrespectful. As applicants, we understand that recruiters are wading through candidates. However, if you've reached out to us and we've prepared and researched to interview, then I think a response is common courtesy at minimum.
