A recruiter reached out to me on Linkedin regarding this position. We had a couple conversations over phone and e-mail, which was followed by a call with the hiring manager. The hiring manager was very nice and professional, and we had a very good discussion regarding past experience, examples of difficult problems I've solved, the open role at MZ, etc... Overall it felt like a positive interview, and I genuinely enjoyed speaking with the hiring manager. After that, I never heard from MZ again. I reached out to the recruiter, but never heard back. I could understand the decision not to move forward with me in the interview process, but after talking with multiple people in the company, I thought they at least should have actively let me known about not moving forward, as opposed to just leaving me in the dark. This all occurred during the first few weeks of covid-19 impacting US businesses, so I could understand if some communication fell between the cracks, but I expected more from the recruiter given how responsive and open he was in general.
