I went through a recruiter screening and then one-on-one interviews with people who would have been on my team. One interview was delayed because someone no-showed, and I had to reach out to get it rescheduled.
The recruiter communication was where things soured. The process ended with an offer, but it was for an Engineer 2 position instead of the senior level I had interviewed for. The recruiter also left a bad impression. Calls had a lot of unprofessional, sales-pitch energy, including claims and stories that didn’t sit well with me. It felt like the pitch became more important than my fit for the actual role.
I accepted the result as disappointing, not because I couldn’t perform, but because the process felt more like hype than evaluation.
Location: Casa Grande, AZ. Overall feedback: Negative. Offer status: Got offer.
