Across four separate interview processes at this organization — one when I first joined, two internal promotions, and one recent role — the pattern was consistent: extremely long timelines, lack of communication, and no meaningful feedback. These issues weren’t one-offs; they were systemic and repeated over several years.
Initial application: When I was first hired, the interview and decision process took seven months. I assumed it was an anomaly due to restructuring or workload. It was not.
Internal promotions: I applied for two internal roles during my tenure. In both cases, communication stalled for months. I received no feedback, no timeline updates, and no clarity about next steps. Both processes ended without transparency and were discouraging enough to impact morale.
Most recent interview: After interviewing for a new role, the organization went completely silent for over three weeks. No follow-up, no closure, no status update. I ultimately accepted another job elsewhere and notified them myself.
