The hiring process was long. I applied for the job, and waited for a month to hear anything back. Finally heard from one of the people on the hiring committee, and set up a phone interview with the committee. The phone interview went well, and then I waited two weeks to hear back about setting up an in-person interview. It was going to be an all-day interview. I met with the hiring committee, toured the facility, met with students, had lunch with the committee, met with the heads of the department, met with more students, met with a member of HR, met with some other people who this position interacts with, and then met with the hiring committee once more at the end of the day. It was absolutely exhausting. I had to be "on" all day. Two of the people on the hiring committee were great, very welcoming, and interested in what I had to say, but I could tell that the rest were not taking me seriously, despite my being very knowledgeable in this field. Yes, I was young, but I knew how to do the job. When I got the rejection call, I asked what I could've done differently. The person in charge of this hiring process told me that I shouldn't have told them that I have anxiety. I was too shell-shocked at that response that it didn't even register until a few weeks later that that is a form of employment discrimination. It was overall a very poor experience, considering that this was a job that I was really excited about the prospect of.
