Was initially asked about my availability for a phone screen, but then that was skipped and I went straight to a virtual panel interview. Overall, it was a pretty standard interview and went fairly well, I thought. There were 5 people on the panel and each person seemed interested and invested in the conversation. I was mostly disappointed about the lack of follow up from HR. They said it would be about 2 weeks and I’d hear back from them either way but no one ever reached out to me. I hate to assume but based on the further lack of response I received after emailing to ask if a decision had been made, I think it’s safe to say there’s no job offer waiting for me. It’s so disappointing to see this kind of disregard for applicants. These are really difficult times and for people who have applied, interviewed, and been rejected from dozens of jobs, being ghosted by a company really sucks. It’s a simple act of decency for the HR team to follow up or respond to applicants even if the answer is, “sorry, we’ve gone with another candidate.” Applicants would rather get any response than to be left wondering.
