Red Flag Alert: My Awful Hiring Experience at SYMB Technologies
Just dodged a bullet, and I want to warn you all. My recent interview process for a Junior Project Management Officer role at Symb Technologies was an absolute nightmare.
Aced Interviews, Ghosting HR:
Interview rounds - HR round, Assessment, Interview with VP, Interview with CTO, Salary discussion with HR.
Nailed every interview round, got showered with praise – the whole "perfect candidate" spiel. Then came the offer. Verbal confirmation, "offer letter ready," pressure to start in 3 days because the CTO supposedly couldn't wait. Sound familiar? Based on this urgency, I politely declined another offer. Big mistake.
A Week of Empty Promises:
For the next week, radio silence from HR. Every day, it was "tomorrow for sure" on the offer letter. Finally, after calling them out on the lack of communication, I get a call. Guess what? The position's cancelled. Unbelievable.
This is Unacceptable:
SYMB Technologies' entire process was unprofessional and disrespectful. Zero transparency, terrible communication, and a last-minute cancellation that wasted my time and cost me another opportunity.
Companies have the right to adjust positions, but it's a two-way street. When they pressure you for an immediate start, they owe you the same courtesy. Especially in this competitive market, fair treatment for candidates is essential.
Thinking About SYMB Technologies / ABM Technologies?
Think twice. Be wary of verbal promises, and get everything in writing before burning bridges with other companies.
