Application

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Big Brothers Big Sisters

Interview

They made me do three interviews that were essentially all the same. They said they would get back to me within a week before completely ghosting me. They said I was completely qualified and that I would do well in the position. I would at least appreciate an automated rejection email. The whole process was extremely unprofessional. Do not apply unless you enjoy getting your time wasted.

There was a phone and then zoom interview I didn’t hear back after the second. I assume they went another direction but did not contact me, which I thought was a little rude

I applied online. I interviewed at Big Brothers Big Sisters

Interview

I interviewed with a recruiter who was very distracted during our initial 30-min. discussion. I was thrown off by the recruiter pausing in the middle of our interview to email their supervisor. There was a five-minute break where the individual went off-camera to send a message. While I ended up advancing beyond this stage, I was really thrown off from the lack of professionalism. This sort of behavior wouldn't be acceptable from a candidate -- even in an emergency.

Overall a very nice experience. There is a pre-screen interview about 20 mins, the interviewer was super friendly. Then another formal interview with the team about 1 hour. There were a lot of questions about how to handle different situations. Everyone was very supportive and friendly which made me less nervous.
