Well, let this be a lesson on first impressions. Because, wow, did I have a first impression.
Phone interview: Scattered and unorganized. Many red flags but decided to take the in person interview, because why not.
In person interview: Rude and rushed. They didn't schedule a conference room so the interview was in the lobby, which is loud and is obviously not intended for a 1:1 conversation. The Recruiter answers her phone in the middle of interview and says that she has an appointment and will need to leave early. Thanks for the warning, but, why did you schedule it during this time in the first place if you knew you had to leave? After 30 min of talking, I'm out of the blue ushered to a conference room with two other people. During the interview, it's very apparent that no one has looked at my resume before I arrive. One person I've already had a phone interview with, the other just spoke to me in the lobby, and the third had never met me before. The layout of the interview was awkward because I'm trying to simultaneously catch one person up on who I am while answering the questions.
Something that I've taken from my years of recruiting is knowing how to judge an organization based on my candidate experience. For instance, I would never answer my phone in the middle of an interview nor would I have an interview in the middle of a hospital lobby. This signaled to me that 1. My time is not being valued. 2. Things are so disorganized that a conference room couldn't be scheduled ahead of time.
So yes, in the end, I didn't move forward in the process. Was I sad? Not in the least. You're welcome to chalk this review up to be another "bitter review from someone who didn't get the offer."
I'm writing this review in some hope that the HR team at Sutter reads this and figures out how to make some major adjustments in their interview process, or lack thereof.
