I had a company do an informal phone interview with a VP, a phone interview with a field sales manager, a formal interview with the vp, then they flew me to their headquarters in another state and I spent half a day interviewing with the same people and they added in a few more, including another field sales manager.
I had been directly referred by one of their reps.
Not only did they not make me an offer, but they didn’t pick up any of my expenses except for the hotel room and the plane ticket. I paid for all the food, Ubers to the airport, Ubers to the hotel. Ubers to their office. Ubers back to the airport. Everything.
I hope that you haven’t stopped looking and interviewing and grinding. Because there are no guarantees until you have a signed offer. Don’t assume anything.
Btw - that VP that declined to hire me? He left for another job 6 months later.
Feel like it’s gotta be a good sign? Big waste of time for all parties involved if not
Dang, I'm exhausted for you. I'm mentally fried after an hour of interviewing. But yeah, that's gotta be a good sign. Can't picture them investing that kind of time unless they're reasonably sure you're the right person for the job. Hope I'm right and you get the good news next week.
