Interview with recruiter. Two onsite interviews which is redundant (all meeting with the team, could have been done with one onsite and one Google meet). I traveled 5 hours round trip for each interview. Given the amount of time I dedicated to them I wasn’t given the respect of a response. Just ghosted. Seems to be a pattern here.

Other Account Manager Interview Reviews for Direct Agents
I applied online. I interviewed at Direct Agents (New York, NY)
Interview
I found the interview experience at Direct Agents disappointing and lacking basic professionalism.
The initial recruiter or HR call felt rushed, with little to no time allotted for questions. I was not given the opportunity to ask about company culture, which stood out to me, especially after later reading Glassdoor reviews that suggest there may be internal culture concerns. First interviews are often a candidate’s only chance to assess fit, and this felt overlooked.
I was later invited to an in-person interview, which I believe went reasonably well. I fully understand that not every candidate will be the right fit, and rejection itself is not the issue. However, the recruiter explicitly stated that I would receive an update by the end of the day or the following day. No update was ever sent.
I followed up twice and received no response. Given that I took time to prepare and travel into their office, I do believe that warranted at least a brief follow-up or rejection email. Being told to expect communication and then being ignored felt disrespectful and unprofessional.
Overall, the lack of transparency, rushed communication, and failure to follow through on commitments made this a frustrating candidate experience.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Direct Agents in Jun 2025
Interview
Seems to be a running theme with the candidates here. Everyone gets ghosted after hour plus long in person interviews. Incredibly unprofessional place. No matter how many times you follow up you get ignored. First interview was super rushed and they don’t allow for questions, Second Interview was with two people and over an hour long.
