If you were a candidate that was reached out to by an internal recruiter and went through 5 interviews spanning more than one month would you be put off by the fact that the company couldn’t even have bothered to get back to you that they went another direction? What a poor experience as a candidate I had with them. Would they want to know or even care? Like at least thank someone for all their time and be courteous.

A few people would care at the company but very few. The problem is the majority of these recruiters get a green light for different candidate and immediately move to the next role they need to fill with zero care on how that reflects upon their company.

I had six interviews with a well respected innovative company and my candidate experience was so terrible and then got rejected for the position because "possibly better fit for another role." A new recruiter reached out and said I'd only have 2 interviews, turned it down because if I was treated that poorly in the interview process, what would it look like/ feel like to work there?

Agree with BCG1. Leadership should focus on this bc I’ve had companies that I’d love to work for but the candidate experience was so awful that I walked away.

Final round! Panel interview w an assignment to present some ideas on how to increase customers for 1 of 5 key audience segments.

Will it look like I took the easy way out if I chose my segment? They know it’s my current audience and has been for 8 yrs. Would love to hear your thoughts!

My company went toxic in the last couple months. Chose me and started interviewing. Had a very successful interview with Amazon but recruiter is working hard trying to place me and said there’s no knowing how long to find a team. Meanwhile I just received a Director offer for a company with a 29% pay bump July 1. If Amazon or any other FAANG/large co gets back to me, is there an acceptable way to not burn bridges with new job and accept or delay start date with FAANG? Or fuck it just hop?

I can access the recordings as a single file to post (with permission of course)

Could it be because of expected salary ?
