Started with a brief conversation with a recruiter who invited me to a group zoom interview. That interview consisted of about 8 candidates and 6 members from Rivian all in different roles. We split into different rooms and proceeded with an interview which consisted of about 4 fairly easy questions. Each person had enough time to answer and it was a good experience. I was invited back for a 3rd interview and it was a 1on 1 zoom interview which was more to make sure I would be a good fit with the team. I was asked if they could keep in touch because they felt like I was a great candidate but my commute was too far.

Applied online and received a follow up for a phone screen a few hours later. The recruiter that called me was so unprofessional, she left me with a bittersweet taste about the company. I couldn't ask any questions and just hang up on me after she gave her speech about the position. The interview lasted 15 minutes at most. I'm not new to the interview world, I've been doing it for a while and this recruiter didn't even give a chance to showcase my abilities. I was just a number that she needed to add to her list. Very dissapointing
