I had a video interview and was incredibly underwhelmed. They could not tell me why good talent should work here, and frankly their company pitch needed vast improvement. If the person on the other end shows little enthusiasm or excitement, how am I supposed to feel excited continuing on in the process, without a sense of what the company is like, its mission and vision?
I was invited to a second interview which I hesitated, but decided to proceed and that was even more bizarre. I could tell this interviewer needed training and perhaps access to structured interview questions would have helped. Both interviewers kept emphasizing that they hire introverts, and both needed lessons on language around inclusivity. Safe to say I had no interest in continuing following this second round.
