Had a call with a recruiter then met with the hiring manager in Emeryville, which is a bit of a big ask considering the lack of access to public transportation. I had a nice conversation with the hiring manager. He was very interesting and asked thoughtful questions. This role fell a bit outside my skill set, so I knew it was a bit of a reach/wasn't full expecting to move forward. I had a call scheduled with the recruiter a week or so after this meeting with the hiring manager. She never called. It took two followup emails for her to acknowledge me. She was apologetic, but it was a really an unpleasant experience - if I can rent a Zipcar to go to Emeryville to meet with a single person, acknowledging a missed phone call in a somewhat timely fashion seems reasonable, no? I understand that smaller companies have to outsource some recruiting work, but I hope Nexon M actually reads the criticism from candidates here because there are similarities. Looks like contract recruiters are souring the reputation of a company who has seemingly decent employees. Like most people, I share entertaining/notable things in my life with my friends and acquaintances. All of them have heard this story about Nexon M. I hope they treat candidates with a bit more respect moving.
