Already on the fence about working for a company in this field I was soundly against it after the interview process. First, the recruiter texted me on a national holiday. No email or call, but a grammatically incorrect, short text asking for a date and time that I could speak. Second, the recruiter was 10minutes late in calling, offered no explanation or apology and repeated several questions more than twice. Third, outside of this person being an awful representation of any business, he asked me - who was applying to be the Marketing Director - how I would feel about redecorating their lobbies... And I how I would feel about managing the office staff to fix their culture and build a better team... As the Marketing Director. Fourth, they lied about their salary range in the job description. They put a clear range of salary in the description and when I told him my pay scale, which fit in their listed range, he said that was out of their budget, but he’d see what he could do. Fifth, he then asked if I’d be willing to come in the same day or the following to meet with the CEO. When I said no, he said “oh well then.” I’ll let you know what’s next by the end of the day. Six, in fact he did not let me know anything by the end of the day and never have any follow up of any kind. Which is fine because they lost me around the second point.

I agreed to come in for an interview after the “recruiter” (another doctor on staff) kept calling my phone and leaving me voicemails. Upon arrival, I noticed it was a very unprofessional atmosphere in the lobby and when meeting with the Chief Medical Officer. Our interviewed lasted maybe 2 hours and I had already decided halfway through the interview I would not be taking the job. The CMO was pushy, aggressive, and had very little marketing know how, yet kept interjecting with incorrect answers to his own interview questions. He also asked if I was married or had kids, I believe this was asked so he could determine how many late evenings and weekends you could work. After a verbal job offer (not within the salary listed) he asked me to contact him later with references said and would like me to start right away. I ended up blocking all the phone numbers associated with the clinic as well as both doctors, as I began to get nonstop calls throughout the day and remainder of the week. This isn’t a marketing job I would wish on my worst enemy.
