Interview kept getting pushed back and constant non-responsiveness.
When I finally received a call, the interviewer seemed very distracted, and didn't particularly care about my responses.
My initial interview day was supposed to be 3 days after I received an email. The actual interview happened when they were driving and 3 weeks later after it got pushed back twice.
In the past month the market has experienced unprecedented levels of volatility. As a trading firm our focus has been on trading the market and relocating 100% of our employees for remote work as NYC has been put on full lock down. We certainly don't want any interviewee to have a negative experience but in this case it may have been unavoidable and perhaps HR should have cancelled the interview.
I applied online. I interviewed at SMB Capital (New York, NY) in Jan 2021
