The interview process is a typical interview process comprised of the following: 1. Phone screening by HR/Relevant Department Lead (Sales Recruiter lead in this case) 2. A 1 hour zoom meeting with two department leads 3. A written assignment 4. TBD Straight after I completed Stage 2, I was given the opportunity to progress with the interview process. The team lead provided me a written task to complete. All was good, they were looking forward to reading my written assignment. About a few moments later, I receive a separate email from the Sales Recruiter saying that they have filled in the role for Technical Support Specialist; they understand that I was given the written task, but proceeds to tell me to not 'work too hard' on it. It was a good learning experience for developing my interview skills, experience and I was able to do a written assignment for the first time. However, the way this interview was handled was highly unprofessional and no regard for the applicants time. There was no display of respect for a candidates time or effort. I handed in the assignment regardless, looking forward to hearing some feedback or even to hear from the Team Lead themselves they have already hired someone. I receive nothing. Completed ghosted. I like to be constructive and productive in certain situations. To ghost or completely disregard one's time and effort in the written assignment is highly disrespectful and goes backwards on the values they hold as a company. Thank you for the experience. I hope future applicants don't have to go through what I did during their career journey. Respecting people's time and effort is important in anyplace and anytime.
