After applying, I was emailed by the internal recruiter to invite me to the interview process. I promptly responded via email and suggested a time/date yet never heard back. WEEKS later, I followed up and she suggested a date and time. It wasn't until well into our interview that she stopped me, and declared because I didn't have Project Management experience in Tech, I was not at all qualified for the role. At all, even with my pushback and clarification of my background (which I assume she looked at when she invited me for an interview). This was not even a requirement in the job description. She made sure I knew that 800+ people wanted this position; was that to make sure I knew I was not a top candidate? She also looked at her phone a few times while I was speaking. I'm confused at best why I was invited to interview if I was such a lousy candidate. Why waste my time? I felt the whole process was somewhat unprofessional and a little degrading.

The interview process was smooth from start to finish. They were clear on the process during the first round. Let me know the estimated start date so I knew when to expect an answer. Very easy to communicate with!
