I was invited to a first virtual interview through Zoom. The interviewer didn't show up and has not answered any of my emails. Making candidates lose their time is unprofessional, but ghosting them is obnoxious.
J'ai passé un entretien chez Lime (Redwood City, CA)
Entretien
A recruiter reached out to me for my availability for a phone interview. I didn’t receive a response. After 2 weeks, I followed up and the recruiter apologized and once again ended up ghosting me. I’m not surprised that after 3 months this role is still open. You lose really good candidates when recruiters don’t follow up and your resume ends up in a black hole.
J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 4 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Lime (Nashville, TN) en janv. 2022
Entretien
Some boiler plate questions, but a friendly recruiter nonetheless. I'd say it took about 45 min to complete. They asked a lot about my experience and how it pertained to the role being offered.

Question 1
Describe a time you had to handle conflict in the workplace.
Recruiter call:
Introduction of myself
Introduction of the company (lime), the position and responsibilities
Questions on qualifications
Time for questions at the end on the position, working culture, anything else. --> Answers from recruiter followed standard startup lingo. I asked probing questions to get a better sense of the working culture and still felt like I had to read between the lines.
