Difficult Interview
Application

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at M&T Bank in Mar 2023

Interview

HR phone interview which was very pleasant. Two weeks later invited for an onsite group interview. The main interviewer who the position reports too was very unprofessional and me feel like I was under interrogation rather than an interview. He was obsessed as to why I changed jobs so often, leading me to wonder why invite me if you had so many reservations about my background. It was a total waste of time and the interviewers were 20 minutes late. Withdrew my application.

Interview Questions
  • Why did you leave your previous positions? If we hire you, how can you convince us you won't quit? What was the duration of your longest stay at an employer? What do you know about M&T Bank?

I interviewed at M&T Bank

Interview

There was a very simple coding interview then a technical interview. The last interview is supposed to be the final and behavioral interview but after I was told I had passed the technical and moved on the behavioral with the next steps being scheduling, I was ghosted by the recruiter for 2 weeks after emailing and just given a rejection email. For a company that was priding themselves on human interactions just felt extremely disingenuous and as if the recruiter forgot to schedule so felt it was easier to reject.
