I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Brunswick (New Bern, NC) in Jan 2011
Interview
A phone screen by the HR VP and I assume a reference check. After successfully going through those items, I was brought in for 1 full day seeing 6 different VP's and the President. It also included dinner with a few executives and the president to see how I performed in a business social setting. Overall experience was pleasant.

Question 1
Opportunities that I saw for improvement during my tour
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Brunswick (Mettawa, IL) in Dec 2024
Interview
Applied online plus had an internal referral.
Recruiter reached out to schedule a call. We had to reschedule a few times due to technical errors.
Once we finally talked, I learned about the role, shared my interest, and was excited to move forward. Was told the hiring manager was out for the next week and a half and I'd hear back then. That time came and went. I gave it a couple of days and emailed status for next steps.
Crickets.
Waited another week, and follow up again.
Nothing.
About a week later, got an automated rejection message.
If someone applies for a job and takes the time to interview, even a phone screen, you owe it to them to follow up. This represents your company and culture.
And, they still were looking. Rumor inside is that the hiring manager was looking "for someone specific" -- interesting take given that I was screened for the role based on my bkd and the jd.
