Interview
I was initially really excited about the prospect of working at Egale, but was surprised by how unprofessional the recruitment process was. I didn't receive an offer, but by the time I had been rejected, I had already decided it was better to stay in my current role. I just felt really uncomfortable with the way I was treated (e.g. not hearing back for 2+ months after applying, then for another month after the interview). There was virtually no communication or transparency throughout the process, and the interview I had also lacked structure and professionalism. Unfortunately, I also got the sense that the organization was most concerned with securing large streams of revenue, in a way that contradicted its overall values and mission to serve 2SLGBTQ+ people. This is not uncommon for non-profits and should be somewhat expected given operational costs and competition, but I found it a little disappointing as the organization (virtue) signals a relationship to human rights and justice. No organization is perfect I guess. I would just keep that in mind.

Interview
I applied for one position and received a call requesting I interview for a more senior position a few days later. The interview went well overall, but when I had the opportunity to ask questions, I asked about how they handle constructive feedback at the organizational level (based on the reviews I saw on Glassdoor), as I was leaving a company that did not handle feedback well at all. The interviewers did not seem to like my question and provided what I would consider to be a generic answer. Later, I received the email that I was not selected. There was no offer to let me interview for the original position for which I had applied. End of story.

Interview
This organization is not serious at all in their recruitment process. After a first interview, they invite you to do an extensive assessment to pick your ideas. They tell you to wait a week, and they will get back to you. They don't get back to you on the agreed date, then continue to publish the job in question, and finally, they tell you that the position is not available. It is a waste of time and energy to follow up with them. This is a company that is shopping for ideas. The comments from former employees seem to be true.
